AWD New setup HELP!
Hello, I just purchased f1r f105 wheels today for my 2014 IS250 f sport awd. Set up I chose goes as... front: 18x8.5 +38 rear:18x9.5 +38
Having done research I know the wheels will fit on stock height but after buying them I got scared that the staggered set up might throw the car off as some say it will happen, while others say it won’t. The tires I bought are Goodyear eagle sport FRONT: 225/40R18 REAR: 255/35R18.
Mainly just looking for reassurance that this set up with fit and will not affect the awd system of the 2014 IS250 f sport. I love the way these rims look and would be really bummed if they will cause harm to the car. Please bump if you can’t respond as the fast I know the sooner I can request a refund and change the set up! Thank you Lexus community!

edit: Off-hand, I am not sure about the offset. Pretty sure it's okay but may want to double check.

Rear is pretty much perfect. Close to being flush but the front you could use a 5mm spacer.
love the ride! But as for your specs.. you have all around +38 offset too? And yes I’m hoping I can mount the wheels and then get 5 or 12 mm spacers for the front in the future. Btw is your car lowered looks great!
You have the same tire sizes as original equipment, so your setup should work great. Your wheels are a half-inch larger in the front, and a full inch larger in the rear compared to stock. So, you would have some stretch.

Don't have the car anymore but I didn't have spacers on mine. 5mm would be good but try 10mm or 12mm as well.
10+ MM would probably be best for "flush" look
what i did was buy 3x Wheel Spacers on Amazon and since they have a great return policy, take all 3x to Tire Shop and see which ones will:
clear Front Brake Caliper if F Sport
looks "Best" to you from a side angle
make sure nothing rubs
etc.
then send the ones back for Return
