Default IS250 AWD wheels on IS350??

If I put Is250 AWD wheels in IS350, will it fit?

I'm trying to get snow tires for winter. I might get extra rims so I can just switch the wheels.

my concern is the front brake rotor. will it clear the rim?

after doing research it seems as if the 350 comes with 17"s. the 18" are optional. i am going to do the same thing you are. any idea on where to get a good deal on the wheels?

Can anyone confirm is the 17x8 ten spoke IS250 rims clear IS350 calipers ? Not sure if that is what's mentioned above.

I can confirm that THESE wheels (off a 2009-2010 IS250 AWD) indeed fit the 350 brakes:


Source: local CL member did 250awd-350awd front brake conversion and is running his OEM wheels for winter no problem; i've seen it in person.
