Default Lexus is wheels

Hi people
i have a 2006 Lexus is.
Currently looking at new wheels for the car. The wheels ive seen are
9.5x19 et35 5x114.3. I know that the 9.5 should be ok on the rears but does anyone know if this will be ok on the fronts. The wheels i want only come in 9.5. I know they will fit the is-f ok but just wanted to check?
any info will be much appreciated
regards
Simon

To answer your question, yes they can fit. Do you have an AWD? Do you plan to get a wider wheel in the rear? You may have rubbing issues of you lower.

The car is standard rear wheel drive. It is lowered buy only 35mm all round. The rears i know will be ok but normally id go for a 8.5 on the front but the wheels im getting only come in 9.5. Obviously dont want them to rub the front arches without doing woekwork & indontI dont want to ruin the car.

Yes. 9.5 with that +35 offset will for sure fit in the front. People run that spec with more aggressive offset than 35. So your good.
