Default Quick Question About Spacers

Hey guys, I have a quick question and I'm hoping someone here will know!

What is the biggest wheel spacers I can put on the stock wheels while still using the stock bolts and lug nuts? Please help me out guys!

I have the 2014 IS250 NON F Sport. It has the 18 inch wheels.

I wouldn't go more than 5 mm. This is what I did since you get the minimum 7-8 full turns (down from 11-12) with the nuts on the stock lugs to operate the vehicle safely. You will also need a hub centric ring to avoid hwy vibration - you can make one if you are a DIY-er.

Check my build thread for pics/details.
