20" Wheels questions...
Hey guys, I just bought my IS350 and have some 20" rims from my acura and was going to put them on. They are 245/30/20's and was wondering if they would rub. I have no drop. Also do you guys think i will loose very much of the ride quality. Thanks in adv. And yea, I love my new IS350....

I wouldn't do 20" wheels on a 2IS. They look too big and it doesnt help that you aren't dropped. But congrats on the new car and welcome!

I think I am going to throw them on and see how they look and feel. I paid a lot for them and hope they work, they have a 4" lip and they look awsome.

Will the offsets from an Acura work on a Lexus? You might have trouble clearing the front calipers on a 350.

I will have to look tonight but I believe its like a 38 or 40 something offset. My shop where I get all my wheels said they would work.

Well i tried them tonight and the front wheels barley did hit the calipers. What offset do you need to clear the calipers and could i get a spacer or something?

its not the offset that matters for caliper clearance...its the disk height.
