Hi all, I previously owned an early model IS250 and I purchased a set of Enkei J10 for them. They are 17x7 with +38mm offset and I am hoping that I can use them for winter tires on my 2016 FS. I know that stock are 19s and I love the size but tires are way too expensive for 19 inch rims. Does anyone know if the J10s would clear the brake calipers? If so, I can run winter tires for about 33% the cost of the 19s.

Why not jack up a wheel, take it off, and throw on the Enkei to see if it will work. test fit the front and the rear.

Took the words right out of my mouth. There's more to fitment than just the diameter and offset... a little more effort but I'm sure well worth it.

coorect me if im wrong but the Fsport has bigger brakes doesnt it? dont think 17’s will fit, those were the base and awd wheel size

@ampageg2 if you have an AWD F-sport, the wheels are square all around (19x8 with a 45mm offset). Base AWD models (without the typical wheels upgrade) come with 17x8 wheels with a 45mm offset and they may fit. However, the wheels you are looking at are an inch skinnier width wise and have a lower offset - that lower offset on the Enkei might be an issue requiring spacers.

Here is a helpful thread where members confirmed that 17x8 wheels from the previous generation GS and Toyota Avalon 17x7 wheels fit (but they have 45mm offsets): https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...-on-my-gs.html

If you have a RWD F-Sport (bigger brakes), i don't think those Enkei wheels will fit period. Bottom line: take it to a local shop to do a test fit!

I agree.

I bought wheels with the same spec as the base 17" GS wheels and they didn't clear the calipers. The geometry of the spokes were a bit different, so it rubbed against the face of the calipers. Had to move up to 18s (at no cost since Discount Tire guaranteed the 17s would fit.)

My current rims needed 5MM spacers in the front to clear the calipers. I did not know at first and tire shop put the wheel on, could not back the car off the lift because the caliper was touching the rim(only the edge of the caliper). They drove me to autozone to pickup temp aftermarket spacers. I ordered the correct 5mm H&R spacers online and went back to the tire shop a few days later to have them installed (required replacing the studs with slightly longer ones).

So even if the specs look good you won't know for sure until you test fit.

Thanks for the answers all. I have the AWD model with 19" wheels, my Enkei actually came with spacers from when I had them installed on the IS. Unfortunately my driveway isn't flat but I'll see if I can't run it by a local Walmart or something and just crank it up and test it out.
