What's your opinion on 20" Axis Mod fitting a 97 LS400?
http://www.axiswheels.com/mod.html
I'm deciding if I should pick up the 20" Mods for my '97 LS400. What do you guys think of Axis? Are their product any good? Will the 20x9 front fit?
Thanks,

Personally, I think the Mods are a little sporty for the LS, but if that's what you like, more power to ya.
I wouldn't call Axis wheels good quality...maybe "ok" at most, but not enough to be purchased. They also make a lot of knock-offs, which is why I don't think very highly of them. I suggest saving up a little more and getting a quality set of wheels (i.e. Work, Iforged, etc.).
BTW, take TJW98LS's advice.

I dont really want Axis but I can get a really good deal on it.... 20" with tires and it is taken out of a GS which was a show car so not much wear on it at all...

Here is a pic of our 2000 Celsior (same chassis as 1997) with 20" staggered wheels and lowered suspension. The lowering is rated at about 1.5 but the car has settled to nearly 2 inches. NO FENDER MODS, NO RUBBING!

Well I just picked up the 20" mod by Axis w/o tires. What size tires do u guys recommend for this car? Also the width in the front is 9" and 10" in the rear. I hope it fits in the front as I read in the forums that most people have 8.5" in the fronts...
I'm thinkin 245/35/20 front? will that fit or is it too thin for 9"?
