Hey guys...

Well, I purchased a set of mint IS300 rims with tires from a friend.

The big brake kit will go on soon enough!>... and I cant wait!!!

For the time being though, I will probably use regular rotors.... Once I get the info Im waiting on for the possible 4 piston calipers, and order the steel braided lines.... I wont go with x-drilled or slotted rotors, Im pinching my pennies folks!

Well, Im going to bed.... I spent a majority of my check on them, and Im sleepy...lol

With certain tires, the rubber will rub the strtus in the rear. since the IS300 wheels have an offset of 50 i believe. I have IS300 rims on now without spacers and they do not rub. However I am going to put a set of spacers in so I dont rub when I change tires. The spacers are inexpensive and will make sure that the tires do not rub the struts. You can probably get a set second hand here on the forum like I did very inexpensively. Thank you RichD978.

Currently running Potenza G009 225/45/17 tires.

Oh, ok...

you guys always look at things from different perspectives....
Im running 215 45 17 dunlop sp sport 9000's

Im going to see if they rub, but it shouldnt matter much, since my original intentions are to run coilovers.... God willing.

I will look into this, and get at you guys with any further info later on.

I have them on a Gen4.5 Camry.
I am under the impression that our platforms are the same.
I don't have spacers and they don't rub.
I'm lowered and have TRD/Tokicos with 215/45/17 tires.
Got Boost?? :sweet:

It will fit, however adding a spacer would be nice to make it flush with the wheel wells.
