Default JDM import IS250

Hi gang,
I'm importing my second Lexus from Japan. Last time was a 2009 IS F, this time is a 2008 IS 250. Should be fun, only 36,000 km on the clock. Should be on a RORO before the end of the month and delivered mid-January.

Does anybody know if IS F wheels with OE size rubber fit on the IS 250? I had to buy tires when I imported the IS F and since this 250 is meant to be a DD for winter and sometimes in summer I'd like to get use from the Firechickens I got last spring.

Yes the stock IS-F size tires 225/40/19 F 255/35/19 R are a bit taller but still fit 250. Occasionally you may hear a slight rub at full lock turn
