Not trying to put down your idea, but why would you want to put IS300 wheels on the Tc? IMO thats like putting type-r emblems on a non-type-r civic. I'm not sure what the lug size is for the IS300, i saw somewhere most lexus cars have weird lug sizes. like 5 X 112.5 or something a long the lines of that. Anyway, good luck. Cya

maybe because he/she thinks they look better. why else? Its not like he/she is going to put "I have Lexus IS 300 Rims!!!!" all over their car.

same reason for WHY you put those ugly ___ tails on your xB...because u like them...___....i want the rims cause they look so much better than the tC's wheels plus i like the 5 spoke...and No im not gonna roll around with LEXUS badges on the wheels i would use the tC centercaps if they fit and if not then just paint the Lexus caps

You're 100% right.

No crap. He's not trying to make his car look like something it's not, he's trying to make it look better. That doesn't parallel "Type-R badges on a Civic" at all... IS300 wheels would look HOT on the tC (if it were possible).

Actually, it *is* possible. It's just not a matter of mounting the rims, since the bolt patterns are different. You would have to change out the studs, and a few other things, but it *is* possible, just not cheap

lol! I gave you my opinion, thats all. You don't have to get so defensive just because i disliked the idea. I even said "good luck" at the end, lol chill.
