Rim purchase
Hey guys. I'm new to club Lexus. I'm considering purchasing 20 inch Vossen rims. How do you feel about 20x9.5 fronts and 20x10.5 rears on my 3is 250 F-Sport??

I don't want rubbing at all. I also plan on getting RS-R down springs. Wheels have 245-35-20 and 285-30-20 toyo tires. Please leave some feedback.

Those tire sizes will certainly rub.
Also, not sure about the 20x9.5 front.
255/30/20 in the rear shouldn't rub. 225/30/20 front should also not rub.
This will depend on your offsets though. I'm on 20x9 +38 F and 20x10.5 +45 R Vossens CVT.
This will be some stretch on the tire though fyi.
I'm on 225/35/20 in the front now and I rub on good size dips.

Avoid 20's!!! they look horrible and are way to big the 3IS!!!!!
19s with the right offset and width are the perfect size. the setup you want, you will rub, if you plan on driving people then say goodbye to your tires and fenders!!!!
like the other members said, avoid vossen!! for the price of vossens, you can get a much better quality wheel that cost the same or just a bit more.

OP--Spend some time reading what others have posted in the 'Aftermarket Wheel Showcase - 3ISx Exclusive' thread, ~pages 42-46 about 20" tires.

I liked the look of the 20x9 and 20x10.5 on a couple of 3is I saw , so I got a set. Got the F-Sport springs which do about a 1" drop. I need tires. Any recommendations?

Are you even going through and checking out some of these past threads? Do some research. Tires have been covered a lot here.
