Default Help pease 98 es300 trying to install 20 inch rims

I own a 98 es300 its my first car and dont really know much bout maintanence and crap. I just bought some 20 inch rims with tires that came when purchased. 1st off my studs are short so i had to buy extended lugs to fit the rim. 2nd i put the rim on and it seems to look as if its rubbing on the spring and doesnt fully fit. do i need a certain tire size, kit, or what?

You don't give the offset measurements of your rims, but either way, you will probably need spacers of a specific size.

A knowledgable tire store can sell you the proper spacers for your application.

20" is a bit much for this model Lexus. Hopefully Spacers will solve your problem, but I'm not sure.

20" rims on a Lexus? Think twice.

Largest rim I would put on that year/model Lexus would be 18's. 4x plus sizing is a bit much.
