Default Quick Question About Spacers

Hey guys, I have a quick question and I'm hoping someone here will know!

What is the biggest wheel spacers I can put on the stock wheels while still using the stock bolts and lug nuts? Please help me out guys!

I have the 2014 IS250 NON F Sport. It has the 18 inch wheels.

You can always run adaptor spacers.

THIS. but I've had friends run 10mm with stock lugs and no problems. highly suggest using loctite to the added security. the rule of thumb i follow is if the bolt/stud sticks out 3/4" from the wheel then you are in the clear
