lots of nice looking wheels.
What do you guys do with your stock wheels.
I am looking to buy a set of 16s or 17s in Toronto and can't find any .....

Default who all has 20" wheels on their LS400

What year?
What offset?
How wide is the wheel?
Any spacers used? If so, how many MM?
What did you have to do to get em to fit?
Are you on coils or air?
If on coils, how low do you actualy drive it?
How wide is your tire?

Please excuse my complete noobness, I have searched the forums, and probably read just this thread 3 or 4 times

I have a '93 LS400, so UCF10 I guess and am looking for wheels.

I have been offered SSR Fellini wheels and am wondering about fitment, I was going for the VIP look but I don't think these really adhere to that, so what would I need to do to get these as flush as possible/will they fit the car?

18x8.5 +30 (3" lip)
18x9.5 +30 (4.5" lip)

LS400 owners post your wheel setup-ucpb4l.jpg

I appreciate any help!

Some pretty big spacers & extended studs or spacer/adapters.
You'll have to test fit them to determine the final spacer size.

For those wondering what the XXR 526's in 20's running the standard offsets look like on a UCF21:

Yup it's all natural camber dropped on Megan EZ streets with the rear springs drooped 1/2". Rides great... The alignment shop set rear camber to -3.5 according to the owner of the car. I'm sure he will chime in eventually..
