Question on some 20's

My buddy has a set of 20" Sevas wheels that I'm considering picking up for my 04 TL automatic. They came off a IS350.

These are the the wheels:

The thing that concerns me are the rears because they are 20x10. The car will not be lowered. Any suggestions on fitment?

20x10 can fit on a TL, offset is the issue. You can run from a +40 - +45 I believe. Tire size, 255/30/20

I have 20x10 with a +45 offset and 255/30/20

Thaks for the info... I guess I gotta find out the offset...Is the offset usually that high on the IS350?

If memory serves me correct, It runs similar offsets like us. If there your buddies wheels, just test fit them, and see. Most likely they should work unless the rear tire is a 275 then you will have to change that out

If you were dropped on S-Techs, which it shouldnt be more than 1.5 drop, think it'll rub with that size rim/tire in the back?

EDIT: Offset on the rear is 43

I don't plan on having people in the back anytiime soon...So maybe I ca go ahead with the install next week and I'll roll the fenders the following...

Reason I decided on 20's is that I got a good deal on a set, and I drive freeway 80% of the time and the other 20% is roads where there is 6 lanes total...No pot holes or anything like that....

I just wish I could roll in a 35 tire versus a 30 tire...

Thanks for your input Fulani, you have been a great help!!!

Actually the springs that I am getting are Comptechs which drop the car any where from 1" to 1.25".....We'll see how the clearance is on the back....

This wont be happening till a week from today
