those will fit on the car but overall it always depends on tire size and amount of drop. i always recommend a shave over a pull as the rear quarters are double thick and most fender rollers cannot handle it, plus you risk ruining the paint!

i shaved all four corners to achieve this look, no pull whatsoever. i'm on 19x10/11 with almost the same offset as your proposed setup.

19x9.5 + 45 225/40/18in the rear
25mm spacer all around

Megan over uas bag set up.

New ball joints and sway bar end links to go with my new set up. Also cut about 2 inch holes in my strut tower for clearance.

New wheels will be coming soon but this will do for now. 😁

Not the greatest pic but here's my new old rims.

RAYS Volk GT7 18x9" +38 & 18x10" +44

Fitment is pretty much perfect for untouched guards, desperately needs more lows.

Looks good yoitskenn, what size tires will you be mounting up? Already shaved/rolled/pulled?

I'm trying to find more pics of MRR HR3 UCF20/21 LS400's. I recently saw that there are ones available in 19x8.5 +18 offset, 19x9.5 +20 offset. Just wondering if anybody could give me some pics or insight into fitment, rolling, and tire size. Thanks

Question for you guys will stock wheels from an RX350 fit my 99 LS400 ? They are 18" wheels and supposed to have 35 backspace. Ive been searching CL for 2 hrs cant find anything. I do not want to change the suspension or roll fenders I just want to bolt them up and roll. Thanks in advance for any help.

with the right tire size the fitment shouldn't be a problem (245/45-18 is the right size for an OEM lexus rim iirc).

But i'm reasonably confident the RX wheels will NOT clear the '95-00 front brakes, though you are welcome to try.
