Default Wheel question

Hello folks. I have been searching for wheels now since before I purchased my XB and I think I have found two wheels that I like that happen to be factory wheels that share the same bolt pattern with the XB (5x114.3?) and could really use your help knowing if they will even work on the XB. The first pair are from the Lexus IS F which are 19X8 up front with a 45mm offset and 19X9 in the rear with a 55mm offset I think. The second set of wheels are from an Infiniti G37S. There are several sets on ebay and one auction states that the front wheels are 19X8.5 with 43mm offset and the rears are 19X9 with a 45mm offset. I have very minimal knowledge as to how offset works and have tried to figure it out by reading the posts in this forum but can't quite grasp the idea. I plan to install the NF210 springs on my XB and provided that the wheels would even work will either set have any rubbing issues? Sorry to be so long winded but any help you could lend me would be greatly appreciated.

I'm basing this on the assumption that the wheel specs given are true & accurate.

The ISF wheels can be used, but they will require rear spacers to work. While the fronts would work fine, the rears at 9" wide with +55 offset will not clear the break calipers unless you use 10mm spacers.

The G37S wheels should work fine, as long as they actually are 19X8.5 +43mm offset fronts and 19X9 +45mm offset rears.

Once you decide which direction you would like to go in, I can help you with tire sizes.

BTW... yes, our bolt pattern is 5x114.3mm (4.5").
