Tires: Michelin Pilot Super Sports
Front: 255/35/19
Rear: 275/35/19

Wheels: BBS Lexus wheels
Overall weight savings is 40LBS for new wheel and tire combo compared to stock wheel/tire combo.




I just purchased a used 2016 RC350 and liked the idea of the RC F wheels. I found a set with 50 miles on them. Unfortunately I am having rubbing issues on the front wheels. There isn't very much space between the tire and the front suspension. I'll probably try a 5mm spacer to give it more clearance. Looks great though.

Wanted to ask a question polar opposite to the theme of this thread, what 18's from other Lexus models will fit the RC? I'd like to use the off-season to locate a set of OEM wheels to use next winter with snow tires. Finding OEM wheels specs has been a bit tough so was hoping to see if anyone knew if IS, GS, or RX AWD wheels in 18" will fit our cars? I'd go with base RC wheels if I could find those but guessing there's a lot less of those around for sale.

I'm not sure if your set on 18s, but I have a set of OEM F-Sport 19s if interested.

NJ winters make me want the 18's for the higher sidewall I can put on the snow tires. Where are you located though?

NM - I see you're in Cali.

Lexus F-Sport split nine spoke option wheels 19"
Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 235/40-19


Wheels look a little dark in this pic, they are liquid silver. Good match for Atomic.

That looks great. Makes it look like an Aston Martin to me for some reason.

Posted in the other section of the forum, but no reply

I am new to the forum here, and also new to car upgrading/ putting on new rims etc, hence why I have decided to post and ask for suggestions. I am currently looking to put on some Niche M130 Targa rims (same ones as the picture posted by this thread owner) on my 2015 RC 350 F Sport.

Rims specs:
Front - 19" x 8.5", offset +35, 5x114.3 bolt pattern, 72.6 mm hub
Rear - 19" x 9.5", offset +35, 5x114.3 bolt pattern, 72.6 mm hub
My current tires specs (currently using OEM/factory tires):
Front-235/40/19
Rear-265/35/19

*not sure on what's the default OEM rims/wheels offset is

I will be sticking to my OEM tires. now, I have some questions. Would this set up work (well)? Would the rims fit well? Any effect on the car's performance or how the driving feels with this setup? Will there be any rubbing? Do I need to lower the car height, or stock/current height of the car right now will work just fine?

I have seen many people's setup where they use higher offset value in the rear than the front, so I'm not sure if im doing this right (having the same offset value of +35 for both front and rear. I do not know if this matter). Let me know what you guys think!

Also, my RC 350 is a Nebula Grey, anyone have pictures of these M130 Rims on their nebula grey RC 350? Do you think they will look good? They look amazing on White and Blue 350s!

Thank you in advance!

Looks great. What offsets are you running in the fronts/rears?

Need advice on fitment.

I'm going to be purchasing Work VXSS in 20s. I need advice on sizing/fitment. Any recommendations?
