Looking for specs on wheels/tires for as flush a fit as possible without rubbing on a 2020 GS350 Fsport on stock suspension without any fender mods.

Looking at fronts at 20x9 +(30-45) and rears at 20x10.5 +(30-45). Tires 245/35 and 275/30.

Any suggestions?

I think there is some variations between individual cars and maybe wheel manufactures. Wheel alignment also play into what fits without rubbing. That said, I have a GS450h lowered to a 2 finger gap on Tein coilovers. I am able to run 19x9 +40 with 255/35/19 Michelin Pilot AS/3 on the front with no rubbing. They fit flush and look great.

Unfortunately, I bought 19x10 +40 with 275/35/19 Michelin Pilot AS/3 for the rear that poke and rub. I replaced the 275s with 255s to get rid of the rub but the 255s on a 10" wheel look a bit stretched which I do not like. I also think stretched (sidewalls) tires ride rougher. I tried my 19x9 fronts on the rear and they flush fit perfectly.

If I could do it again, I would happily run 19x9 +40 with 255/35.19 Michelin Pilot A/S3 or 4s all around for a flush fit look that I much prefer. See my post with pics: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...t-dilemma.html

20x9 +32
20x10.5 +45

This will fit flush with the tire sizes mentioned with no fender mods.

Default Going to some good Allseasons and thinking about stepping down to 18's

I am thinking about buying some 18's for my '18 GS350 F Sport AWD that currently has the 19's on it....



3 reasons...

1. My wife is hard on wheels (she tends to find the potholes and any curbs that are around)

2. I would like slightly more sidewall for some more "cushion" from bumps and jolts in the road and to make my wife a little happier with the ride, although she likes the car very much overall

3. I am planning to buy some Michelin CrossClimate2 tires and I would rather get wheels at the same time, as these tires are supposed to last 60-70K miles


If I do go to 18's, what is the size and offset that is recommended for a nice flush/slight tuck that is a good look with plenty of clearance without rubbing?

Can I go wider on wheels and tires without rubbing?

Default Here's my addition to the other nice G's......



Staggered 21x9 +35mm (F), 21x10.5 +50mm (R), TSW's and RSR "super-downs" springs. Still a little more work to go.

What is the specs on your wheels and tires and do you have any issues with tire rubbing?

I have 2016 F Sport RWD lowered with RSR Downs and factory 19-inch wheels (235-front and 265-rear). I was hoping to get a 20-inch wheel set up, something like 20x9 in the front and 20x10 in the rear with 245 and 275 wide tires.
Do you know the offset specs or wheel specs that will fit flush without any rubbing and fender rolling? Also, where do you guys normally get your wheels installed? Any specific shops /dealerships or will TirePlus ok?

I saw these wheels on a KIA Optima the other day. They are XIX wheels. I had never heard of XIX wheels before. I asked someone who had heard about them and they said that they were a decent wheel and a good price. So I just thought I would share and ask what the opinions of them on a GS is here?

Looking to get some wheels for Cyber Monday, so in a bit of a time crunch trying to make sure everything would be good with this setup.

RSR Downs, 20 x 9 in the front with 245/35/20 +35 (already confirmed that's fine via another forum member's post).
20 x 10 rear, 275/30/20 +40. The forum member said "+45 on a 10 or 10.5 is correct and the largest you can go" but this website is showing me +40mm on a 20 x 10. Is that still ok?

+40mm on a 20 x 10 is fine and is what I have.
