Default Stock wheels that clear LS Brakes on a 2GS?

Just curious if anybody has some experience with different types of stock wheels that will clear LS brakes without spacers. I know I could run a spacer if needed, but I would rather not if I didn't have to. I have stock 16" wheels, but didn't want to keep a pair of spacers in the car just in case I get a flat tire. 18" or 19" G35 wheels? 18" 2IS Wheels? Anybody ever test fit a set of stock wheels over LS brakes? Please post if you've confirmed fitment. Thanks in advance.

If they clear the factory G35 brembos I don't see the LS calipers being a problem.

But if you wanna know something thats really funny is that the IS350 calipers sticks out further than the IS-F 6-Pot Brembos

+1. I was thinking the same thing about them clearing Brembo's. In any case, anybody car to chime in, as there are a couple sets of these for sale locally and don't want to spend too much money, especially since these would be only for a full size spare.

I was wondering about the 17 inch g35 wheels and if they would clear i can pick up a set with good tires for under 400 and have been unable to find if they would clear or not.

Which ones did you get? pic? Are they from the IS250 or IS350 because the brakes on the 350 are quite a bit larger compared to the 250
