Can 18" Wheels Fit on 4th Gen GS w/ F Sport Brakes?
Hi Guys,
I could not find a thread on this but can 18" Wheels Fit on 4th Gen GS w/ F Sport Brakes? I thinking about running staggered 18X8 (235/45 18) and 18X9 (265/40 18) w/ all season ultra performance on a 2015 GS450H.
Any takers? Thanks.

Thanks for the reply NXXT. Nice custom paint.
Consider me old fashioned but I like the taller side wall. If there was a way to re-calibrate the revolution, I would run higher profile tires. Hahaha.

Just bought some 18" TSW Rouges and learned the hard way that they did NOT clear the F-Sport brake callipers. And now they are up for sale. So, try before you buy!

Isn't the F Sport's front factory offset set at positive 45 mm?
So you needed a special offset of positive 35 mm to get the 18" wheels to clear the F Sport's front brakes?
In other words, you have increased your front track by 20 mm overall?
