Hi All,

I’m looking to buying some wheels but not sure if it will fit my 2007 IS350. The spec on the wheel is 18x9.5 et38 5x114.3, squared setup. Will any of the wheels stick out of the wheel well? I really want the wheels, so any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I know that a few membershave ran a squared setup on am RWD. 18x9.5 +38 in the rear is about perfect. The front wont stick out of the fenders but I am not sure if you’ll rub on dips etc. Also 9.5 in the front is aggressive so expect fender mods.

What suspension will you be running with these wheels? But yeah, on the fronts, even at stock height, you'll encounter inner wheel liner rubbing depending on what tire you run. PLEASE don't stretch the tires!

I'll be running stock everything (suspension & tires). Previous owner painted the stock wheels, so now I'd rather replace them. It's my daily so I'm not really looking to lower it. Oh, and absolutely NO on stretching the wheel. A concept I don't understand....
