Hey guys,

Are the F sport wheels a ok fit for the awd IS250? I heard that the f sport wheels are staggered and might cause some issues with the transmission. I already ordered the f sport suspension so it will be about a 1" drop. I am looking for something like this

Yes they are very much ok, just keep the rolling diameter of front and the rear tires fairly close and you won't have any issues.
You could go with:
F 225-40-18 / R 255-35-18
F 235-40-18 / R 265-35-18
or just like Jeff said, use non staggered wheels and square tires.

If you wanted, you could of course just order 4 of the same wheel and run non-staggered.

Alternatively, as was stated, staggered can be done if you choose your tire sizes wisely. Lexus did this for the 3IS F-Sport models.

If you don't mind me asking, which setup would give me less issues? sorry for the redundant question lol

That is another alternative. They look pretty much the same. Thanks!

Lexus uses ridiculously high offsets (ET) on their vehicles, I don't think you will have any rubbing issues with 235-40-18 / 265-35-18.
