Here is my new set up, 305 forged 20x9+20 front on Pirelli P Zero 245/30r20 and rear is 20x10.5+25 with Pirelli P Zero 275/30r20.





love the orange calipers, thats what I want to do with mine,, and the blacked out chrome as well. Im thinking about running the 19" f sport wheels actually, and an IS F brake upgrade. I rolled the rears on my GS350 and didn't warp them...

Hi,
I have the same car a 2008 GS350 AWD.....I bought a set of staggard wheels from a 2017 IS350 fronts are 225-40-18 and the rears are 255-35-18 some people say not to use them because of the AWD system....but I see that you have staggard wheels.
Can you tell me if I can or not.
THank you

I think you should be fine, overall diameter is close. I ran staggered for a while on my 2007 GS350.

you'll be good. Just make sure you keep the front and rear tires sizes as close as possible. Im running 20x8.5 front with 235/35/20 and rears are 20x10.5 with 265/30/20 and its smooth as butter

what brand spacer did you use? Also did you stock bolt stick out a bit on the spacer or did they clear?

hey guys, first post here. ive been driving my old man's lexus around so much, i decided to treat him to some new wheels and tires. so if anyone is looking for another data point on fitment, here you go.







car is a 2011 gs350 awd

front:
Konig Dekagram 19x8.5 et30
Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 225/45ZR19

Rear
Konig Dekagram 19x9.5 et35
Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 255/40ZR19

no spacers. no rubbing. although i have a set of tanabe df210s that will go on soon. and will report back on rubbing after those.

the lateral fitment is just perfect in my mind: check the pics.

also, these wheels are REALLY lightweight, and dont break the bank. larger tire AND +2 larger wheel, and they still came in 3lbs lighter each than the factory setup.
I was actually looking at dekagrams or hypergrams, can you post a side shot of the whole car so i can see how they look?

nice car dude. I know its not wheel related but how do you like those headlighs and taillights. I've been wanting to get my hands on some but haven't because I've been afraid of fitment/lighting issues and the rear set is 500 bucks and the headlights are a little under 500

Fellas, It’s been a minute. Just picked up a 2007 GS450H. Looking to put some wheels on it.

The car is dropped on FSport springs with the rear fenders shaved and the front fenders rolled.

I plan on running a square setup with 19 x 10 with an offset of 38. Would 255/35 up front and 265/35 rear work with my current setup?

I run 19x8.5 +38 all around and run 255/35 Continental DWS tires. I have mine lowered on BC coilovers with 14k front and 12k rear springs. I rolled my fenders. I get some major rub when driving in the bay area. Im considering swapping to staggered wheels with my next setup and goin 30 series tires
