Default will IS300 rims fit on my 2005 RX330

The title says it all. Will these rims fit on my 2005 rx330:

OEM Wheels (IS300):
* Size: 17 x 7 All-Around (Sedan);
* Bolt Pattern: 5-114.3
* Offset: 50mm
* Weight About 28lbs
* DOES NOT Accept TPMS Sensors

My RX330 rims do not have metal valve stems.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris

stock rx 18s are x7 +35. for the front/ rear of your rx, get underneath and measure the distance from the inner barrel/ widest part of tires and see how far it is from the strut.
If it is more than 15mm than the is300 wheels will not fit. but you do have another option.
Buy 4 +25mm adapters that bolt over the stock hub and the wheels will sit 25mm further out leaving plenty of room between wheel and strut, so no rubbing issues.

Do you have the standard 17's on your RX330? Not the 18's?

Why 18 to 17? Or you just love the IS rims?

Remember the IS rims are designed for a car, not an SUV, however, I think it can be used for an SUV.

My rx came with standard 17 inch rims.
The reason for the IS is there is a sale. I was at Toyota dealership and indicated that the rims would fit perfectly. I'm rather excited

Go for it, if priced very well.

Otherwise save the money and get the 18's!

I'll post pictures in the spring once all of the snow and salt has gone away. My stock rx rims will become my winter tires. The previous owner did alot of park by brail and damaged the powder coating on all of the rim's lips.
