Hi Folks.
First post with our new to us 2006 RX400H.
I picked up a set of 19" OEM wheels from a 2011 RX350 off Ebay. The tires were mismatched at 245/55/19 (x2), and 235/55/19 (x2). I was not so concerned about the tires as they were pretty worn down at 4/32nd and I was just going to replace them in a few months anyways with new tires.
When I went to the tire installer, he jacked up the car and tried to put the 245/55/19 wheels on the rear and he said that there was not enough clearance from the strut housing. We tried the 235/55/19 wheel and it did fit but only cleared the bottom of the strut housing by about 1/2 inch.
Can someone confirm if gen 3 19" RX350 wheels will fit on our RX400h and also whether the 235/55/19 is the proper tire size.
Thanks,

Like many topics you might have questions about, this has been discussed previously here at CL, thought not in much detail.
