Default Help. Will riim offsets for an IS300 fit for us?

Hi. My friend is planning to sell me his 19x8 Racing Harts. I asked him if the offset will be compatible with the s2k. He is unsure what the offsets are but, he said that when he bought it, the dealer told him that 19x8 is the only width he can get and it only comes in one offset. Can someone please help me out and tell me will there be any complications? If it does fit. what tire size would i also have to get?

Your car has different center bore front and rear and different width front and rear. I would not do it. I would say the IS300 offset is not quite as high as the S2K either.

Thanks for the advice Jim. Even though its not perfect. What kind of damage would be done if I did buy it for my car?

I had an is300 with LSportline 19" wheels. The S2000 has the same bolt patern, but the offset is way off. I put them on to see what they would look like, .... Lets put it this way, it looked like the kind of stupid high school kid that knows nothing about how a car should look and sit correctly, but puts a set of wheels on because he/she thinks any aftermarket wheel looks cool, no matter what they are. They stuck out past the fenders.

Stick to finding the correct offset, never compromise.
