Nice looking set-up, I like the OEM wheel fitments. Wish they weren't so conservative overasll. I don't know what track width they aim at with these, though a +10 on the offset would still be quite OEM looking.

You think i should get some wheel spacers? how much spacing would you recommend?

My thought would be 10mm front and 20mm rear. 15 and 25mm is also an option being a bit more aggressive. Both don't pose rubbing issues but some squarish sidewall tires may contact the front liners under hard cornering/compression with the 15mm spacer in front.

This is Lavrishevo's thread with some SC430 wheels.

I have 25mm spacers front and rear behind 17x8( offset 50) GS rims with 225 45 tyres and theyve never rubbed even though i consider my car to low for the street.

And they poke more than 18x7,5 offset 45 rims:
GS430 vs LS430

Looks wise i would be better of with maby 38mm spacers in the rear like RugbyDad suggested: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls4...ml#post8696978

Next set of tyres will be 235x45. I dont know if thats pushing it but the plan is to get more negative camber (less camber?) before that (stock now).

I was gonna suggest 15mm front and rear but seeing lavrishevo's, I would definitely go 15 and 25. That just looks so purrty for an oem wheel.
