jmbillsta's quick question

i have read that the front IS350 brake calipers stick out more than the ISF, does that mean i would be able to stick my stock IS350(18'') rims on my ISF?

These are not forum friendly questions. If anyone has advice, please PM. Anything posted on a public forum could tend to indicate someone is committing insurance fraud. Anyone assisting could be found complicit.

Be smart. Don't post in this thread.

Bill,

The OEM 18"s will not clear the IS-F brakes in the front, they will clear the rear calipers just barely..

Try picking up a set of 19" G35/G37 wheels for real cheap... I am sure you want to keep your very nice undamaged aftermarket wheels..

That car will never be driven again. It may never even be moved again. If it were me, I'd bolt on any 18" wheel with the correct bolt pattern that clears the circumference of the brakes. You really don't want to lose those nice wheels.
