the answer is no. 17" wheels dont even fit an is350 with the bigger brakes so it surely wont fit an F..have fun at the track

it might. My 18's clear the rear with the MT 245s pretty easily. Depends on the rim. Some rims have more clearance than others. The rear brakes are kinda small. I'd say try it for fitment and let us know!

what he said. i never thought about using just the rears..they might fit..but i highly doubt the fronts will..why not just test it out?

I can't find it right now, but there was a thread in the past where someone had successfully put 17" rims on the rear of the IS-F. I don't know what wheel it was, but depending on the wheel it is possible.
