Default 19" Wheels with a 40 Offset?

Hi. How would a 19" wheel with a 40 offset work on the GS350?

I think the stock F Sport 19" wheel is 45 offset correct? So would a 40 offset be ok without a Spacer or anything? Would that place the wheels inward some or outward winder stance? I am not a wheel guy so thanks for all's help.

Correct the stock F Sport Fronts are +45, so yes a +40 offset would work but that all depends on if you are staying with the 19x8 OEM wheel. If you going aftermarket then the face design also come into play. For instance my aftermarket fronts (Semi Concave) are 19x8.5 +30, which puts the wheel flush with the fenders and clears the large front calipers, I probably could have gotten away with a +35 and still clear.

Looking at staying with a Stock Spoke type wheel. So would 40 pull the wheels in tighter a bit? Or out wider apart? Thanks.

It will push the wheels out 5mm so closer to lining up with the fender. You should have no issues.

So away from the caliper out spread a little wider wheel base right? Thanks.

Hey another question as I search. The 2013 - 2015 F Sport 19" wheels? On the RWD they are staggered at 19 x 8 front and 19 x 10 rear correct?

So does the AWD F Sport have a "19 Factory Rims the same width all the way around? Like 19 x 8.5 front and rear? Thanks.

Ok got it. Now I know what to look for. I don't want to deal with the Limited tire selection of the staggered set up.

So now I'm looking for a set of GS F Sport 19" stock wheels to buy new or preferably Take off Used wheels. Thanks. Every time I searched I found all kinds of non specific to the type car and width info. Now I know what to get. Thanks.

So the AWD F Sport 19" is 45 offset 8 inch wide rim all front and back? Correct. Thanks all!

So I think I found a set of GS350 F Sport RWD Staggered rims at 19x8 front and 19x9 rear.

Can I run all the tires the same size say 245-40-19 all front and rear? I noticed the offset was 60 on the rear. Would having all the same tire sizes cause a issue?
