1sikgs Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 well a friend of mine has a set that he would let me borrow but he says that it would not fit :( and that i have need spacers and extend my rear lugs.. they are 19 inches..im just wondering if its true? thanks. ← what you would need to know is the offset of the wheels and also what size tires are on the rims. if the offset is not correct or the tires are too big then the tires might rub, or the wheels just might not fit at all. the other thing is the bolt pattern. your car has a 5 x 114.3 bolt pattern and the wheels have to match that. if you want a little more informations check out this link. http://www.lexusgonewild.com/articles/WheelFitment.shtml hope i've helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neo Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 Although not the most aggressive offsets, they will fit the GS. The 265/30 should work fine for the rear too although 275/30 would bea better size. If you are keeping the 265, a matching front size would be 235/35. If you can stand for the front to be slightly larger diameter, 245/35 would work best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gs300t Posted October 10, 2005 Author Share Posted October 10, 2005 thanks neo.. so these rims would go on my gs300 w/ no spacers? yeah the front of my gs is kinda low but the rear has about a finger gap. the front has none. so i think i'd have to go 235/35 in front. ok thanks alot neo ur the only one that knows :) hope anyone else can confirm this. thanks guyz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a BBK and you need to clear the calipers 2. You want to push the wheels more flushed with the fenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
