Your ride quality will suffer like no other....
I miss the floaty feeling from the higher profiles.
You will need spacers in the rear if you want higher profile tires.
If you are using the Stock IS 300 tire size, then it will fit without any modification. You will need new lug nuts.

see tahts the thing i want my wheels to look better...
was thinking about getting my wheels polished up some where to look chrome
people prefer polish over chrome now adays easier to keep clean and it shines just as long and they wont peel as easy in weather. idk?
17's wouldnt be too bad of a ride for our cars would it?
