Default Will 2007 GS430 stock rims fit IS350?

I kinda want to do something different to my car, but not spend 4K on rims and tires or springs. Will the 07' GS430 stock rims fit? What do you guys thinks?

Yes, they will fit, but they won't be staggered.

I like those rims as well. They should fit but they are not available in 18x8.5". so 255/40/18s" are too fat for the tire

You would have to move to 235/45/18s or 225/40/18

These rims look great! I'm eagerly looking to do the same thing. Have you had any problems? What's the exact size of the rim width and the tires up front and in the rear? Thx!

Even though the GS wheels are not staggered I think I like them better than the X-package. I've got the ISP wheels and at first I really liked them but now they need to go. I've been looking for 5 spoke wheels that actually fit the IS350 for months. I don't want to pay an arm and a leg for wheels. I know there are HRE, iForged wheels out there that I like but $4K is too much for wheels on this car. maybe the GSs are the way to go.

I'm guessing staggered works, as long as you get a slightly larger overall diameter in the rear? I was hoping to hear back from cc16ue! Still waiting!
