Default 2002 Lexus GS430 Tire/wheel size recommendation?

I'm looking to purchase 20" rims for silver 2002 Lexus GS430. I use to have

20" rims on my ride but they would scrape when I would turn. I would like to know what you guys have on your ride.

If you can share your recommendations I would appreciate it.

PS: I'm looking for something in gun metal so if you have any make/model please share.

Thanks,

Beesh

One thing for sure, go to miata tire calculator to see what size will match up with your original diameter so you won't mess up the speedometer.

You can get 1000 different answers for this question. I would us eth esearch function then go from there. A 20x9 20x10 is commonly used with different offsets and tire sizes.

I run a 20x9 and 20x11 HRE's with a 305 series rear tire.....thats pretty extreme sizing though.

Good luck

Default GS430 Wheels Fitment

Your going to get many different answers searching like this but I can give what I have tried....20x9 front 35 offset with 225/35 and 20x10 rear 40 offset with 245/35 with tein ss coiled almost all the way down with sage rca's with no problems at all......your offset, wheel and tire combo also ride will play a big factor....
