Spacers for IS500
Hello all,
I am looking into possibly putting on 15mm spacers front & rear and I am just curious as coming from the corvette world this was a big no no and it appears to be a common thing in the Lexus world. Can anyone educate me on this as I really like the look and would like to know about any +/- of doing this upgrade. If I go 15mm will that cause a lot of debris to be kicked up onto the car? This is only going to be my nice weather car and not driven in the winter so I am not sure how much of an issue that may be. Do you need longer studs or can can you use current ones with this as well?
appreciate any recommendations.

Cars use bolts so spacers are super common. Plenty of kits available and one of the FB groups is run by Anitra Lao who can set you up. I went with the +15mm front and +20mm rear, new extended wheel bolts and security bolts as well. Spacers are all hubcentric so the car is fine with them. I run hubcentric spacers on my race-car with 0 issues as well.
