I got 03' LEXUS IS300 rims sitting in my garage right now since I have new rims for the IS.. But my question is will the LEXUS IS300 rims fit on the TL..? Offset is like +55 and it's 215/40/17 and bolt pattern is 5x114.3.. Will they fit my second gen TL..? I'm too lazy to go actually try and fit them.. Thanks!

Stock IS300 wheels are 17x7 +45 5x114.3

Wheels should fit with no problem. However, 215/45-17 are 1" shorter than stock which will throw off your speedo by 3%.

here are some pix I got wit hthe IS300 rim on the rear of my TL.. looks pretty nice.. but the rim wont exactly fir since the center.. I dont know what its called but theres a metal hump on the rotor which is too big so the IS rim wont slide all the way on.. but heres a sneek peek.. I might just have to somehow alter something to get these to fit.. Beats getting TYPE S rims.. and they look better inmy opinion..

sorry for bad quality pictures..
















<---- Makes our rim look so ugly and small..





I know only 2 lugnuts are on since it was jsut for the picture.. More pictures at http://photobucket.com/albums/v676/A...IQ/Acura%20TL/

You know, those wheels do look good on the TL
The center of the wheel is called the center bore which measures 70.1mm. I believe the IS300 center bore is 60.1mm. You therefore would need to take the wheels to a machine shop and have them enlarge the center bore to 70.1mm.

Anyone got anymore feedback? I might make this permanant.. any idea on how much a shop would charge to widen the centerbore of the IS300 rim? Thanks!! Any criticism is fine with me!

yea it looks pretty nice. i have the 04 tl rims on my 00 and these IS300's look very similar to my setup.
