Offsets for Lexus GS and IS 5 star wheels.

Hi all,

I'm looking for the Lexus 5 star wheels. I saw that the ones on the IS 300 is very similar.

Do you know if the offsets are the same or how I can tell the difference between the two wheels.

Thank You,

iirc, the IS300 wheels have a higher offset, so without spacers, the wheels will look too far in the wells on the GS... maybe someone else can confirm?

From what i've read but am drawing a blank - 17X7 is +40MM and 18X8.5 IS350 5 spoke is +50MM. With those specs 15MM spacers needed with the 18's for sure.
