Mod the car the way you like homie. You don't have to put expensive wheels on your car, just look for a style that will fit the style your looking for. There are affordable wheels which look nice as well. Let someone scold me for not dumpin $5000 on wheels...that would be the day. If ya got it, spend it, but people shouldn't look down on the little man when he's on the come up....That's lame!On a side note, racial comments aren't needed bro, we are here to help one another.

But to be completely honest, many on here are a bit upset with the fact that the Lexus communities age demographic has gone very young 
many of us got these cars because the are "man" cars and can only be afforded by men, but this past year we've gotten a lot of youngsters who are getting hand-me-downs or are able to afford a 10year old version of the GS and well, we as men are wanting to be... well men 
i'm not at all clowning on young folx at all, I'm just stating facts. We've had discussions in the past about the 2GS getting old 
but yea, mainly we just want to have our classy cars while the youngsters have their toys but reality was stated already, the years are going by

like the other guys mentioned, you really wanna (if you have the option) buy the wheels with the offset you need for the look you're going for. spacers are used as a means to obtain a wider stance if the wheels you already have aren't sitting how you'd like them to and buying another set with better offsets isn't an option. people don't add spacers along with their wheels because it's another "upgrade", most commonly they are used to correct a fitment issue that can't be corrected otherwise without buying new wheels. having said that, here's a couple pics of how 30mm front and 35mm rear spacers look mounted up with OEM 17's (17x8 +40 I believe) which look decent but have horrible offsets. Since I like to use the OEM wheels when I'm not on my 19's, spacers are a must. I actually run a 35 up front now and a 45 in back when I use the 17s and it's STILL not flush yet. keep in mind I'm also dumped on air, so depending on how low you are the 50s might either make the wheels stick out too much if you're not low enough, or you may have to shave your inner fenders.. esp if you're running a 20 inch wheel. I seriously suggest just buying the correct offset from the jump.. there are a ton of posts on the forum with info on wheel sizes and offsets that will provide differet types of fitment. without giving us that info from the wheels you're looking to buy, it's impossible to recommend you anything.

At least you can read good I guess
.As for 50mm spacers, if you must... I would look for hub centric ones. Also make sure you have extended studs. But if you are in a financial position to choose your offsets, get proper offsets.
double stack 25mm?
