Default wheel fitment question

looking to purchase aftermarket wheels and wondering whether 20 x 9 (5 x112) will fit my 16 rx350? I am not familiar with the aftermarket fitment issues and any advise is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

20x9's are fine, but the RX bolt pattern is 5 x 114.3. For best fit, try to find wheels which have a hub/center bore of 60.1mm as well, otherwise you'll need to get hubcentric rings/spacers to avoid vibration. Stock wheel offset is 30mm, so that's another spec to look at depending on how you want the wheels to look.

There are some people out there who have managed to do this using wobble bolts and spacers, but maybe others can chime in about this. Some drilling may be required.

Personally, I would rather get proper fitting wheels, rather than deal with spacers and adapters.

You can probably find adaptors, but it's complicated. You need to source adapters, longer bolts, and match the wheel to adapter to hub. Depending on the wheel offset you may poke a bit. You might be susceptible to vibration as well. I'd do it the right way and find a wheel that fits properly.
