Default i250 caliper vs gs350 caliper

So im in the process of buyin some wheels and coils off a buddy locally and his wheels wont clear my calipers. Does anyone know if the is250 calipers will fit on the gs350? I know the struts and springs will. Only reason I would even consider it is cause its free but i thought id ask for some opinions. I probably will just run spacers and extended studs but any insight would be nice. Thanks

It possibly could with different brackets, etc. But why would you do that? You would be downgrading your braking system. GS350 front calipers have more pistons.

Long story short a buddy of mine lost his job and cant afford his car so he wants to turn it back to stock. I was just gonna take his wheels and struts off but his wheels dont clear my calipers. Not sure if i have time to order spacers.

try amazon for quick shipping or pay more and buy spacers locally. there would be no way I'd even consider swapping brakes/rotors etc from a is250 to a gs350.

I decided to go ahead and buy spacers. I went with amazon for the two day shipping. id rather not mess with switching out my brakes. It was just more of a last resort if I really needed to kinda thing. thanks for your input
