ISF4U2NV

I have a mild aggressive wheel set up on my IS-F, made a great deal on a new RC-F anyone know if the offsets between the two cars are similar?

What are the offsets front and rear?

Looks like you cant get to crazy but you can go with a wide rim like 11's

If you look up foreverkidd (4everkidd) on here he used his ADV1 from his ISF on his RCF so the specs are similar. You might find picture of his cars with the wheels to give a general idea. Also an ISF recently made a thread about OEM RCF wheels on his car and they fit good.

My rear HRE wheels are made for the RCF if that helps. Needed a roll and shave but nothing Insane

Yes, RC Fs are in huge inventory. Not selling well at all. If I were looking at a new F it would be a GS F so I can haul my little one with more room, but he'll appreciate the IS F as he gets older.

I did something one time driving, and his remark was, "Not nice, car!" Years from now, he'll understand.

Lexus needs to get off their behinds and market F cars the way they should to penetrate the market.

I am with you on the GS-F. Just hard to imagine that a sedan that large would feel better than the IS-F on the track , but then again these engineers know what they are doing. I have been eyeing the GS-F for the future. My little ones are 3 and 5 and will need more room . I am giddy when I get to take the family to dinner and a movie on the same weekend as a track day. Between my size and the 2 kids the GS-F would just make more sense, but not as a new car. Too pricey for me as new. LOL I'm a OD not an MD

The marketing for the F cars doesnt look any better than the pulse of advertisements we saw in 08 for the IS-F. Im not sure what they are thinking. The F mark is unknown and watered down by F sport. I would love for people to know why my car is so loud

There is huge inventory and its just not like a Lexus customer to walk in and buy a race car. Takes a certain person in my opinion. My mom loves my car but would never want a v8 400hp. She would put it in the ditch.

Also I was told people are looking for Is-f's as they are becoming more rare. People love the 4 door model and prices to buy them went up. Everytime mine goes to the dealership I have people gauking over it and offer me money for it. More then what I paid.

Chassis balance. The IS-F isn't particularly exciting with its 54/46 weight distribution; you can feel it when you corner. The GS-F is allegedly much, much closer to 50/50 despite its size and weight. The reviews all point to this.

I8ABMR

Ideal is actually 52/48 because of the forward motion of the vehicle will make it 50/50 in motion. Or at least that what I have been told

Specs are similar however its not just the offset difference; brakes are larger on the RCF. The rolling diameter of the RCF wheels and tires is also larger than on the ISF so you will need some bigger tires to fill the gap

My ADV.1's were custom made for my ISF however I required a 5mm spacer in order to clear the brake callipers on my RCF. I just purchased a set of 15mm front and rear bolt on spacers to see if

Essentially for the same size wheels you have about 15mm more offset to play with on the RCF
