You will need the basics for a good hubcentric spacer.

- Hub Bore = 60.1mm
- Bolt Pattern = 5x114.3mm

H&R makes spacers that will fit, but they are listed for the Lexus IS. Their spacers also include new studs which are longer to accommodate the added spacer.

The bore is 60.1, so would it be incorrect to buy wheels with a 73mm bore?

Define work...

NO! It will not locate the wheel to the center of the hub.

You can buy plastic hubcentric rings that allow you to center aftermarket wheels to the stock hub.

Enkei wheels are 73mm, so I purchased a 73mm to 60.1mm hubcentric ring. Pop that in the back of the wheel and install on the car for a perfect fit.

They are cheap and most if not all wheel/tire shops should have them in stock for you to purchase.

I have a cement tC also and I'm still contemplating which wheel color to go with. it's hard to imagine because no other car comes in this color.. I have thought of doing a red theme with the car since TRD stuff is red and I think black with red lip should look good. I'm trying to imagine how a bronze wheel would look on cement since I originally wanted a white car with gold/bronze wheels but loved the uniqueness of cement.

i think it would work well. there's someone earlier who posted a cement tC with black rims and chrome lip so maybe you can ask him for a side pic and you can find someone to photoshop or edit the lip to red and maybe it'll give you a better idea of what it'll look like. I would imagine it to look pretty good

No...those are not the standard IS-F wheels...but you can get them for the IS-F for another $4,000. These are the F-Sport wheels...they cost extra.

Thanks...I went the the Toyota/Scion dealer to get the TPMSs programed (didn't happen...will report when I've got more info)...I think all of the mechanics came out gauking at my car...it was quite funny. Then I asked, why they were all searing? They all asked where I got those wheels. I said that they are Toyota wheels. They said no way! Then I told them that they are TRD wheels. Again came the "No way!". Then when I told them that F-Sport was a division of TRD, then they started to catch on...

If you ever decide on adding the red TRD big brake kit...it might look even better...the red and the blue. It might have been too red other wise.
