I picked up a set of the rays 350z track edition wheels for my ls for cheap, $200cnd, so I couldn't pass up the deal. Planning to throw them onto the ls when I install have time to install my coils, prolly in spring cause I have a wedding coming up and have to do it before the baby arrives in april LOL.

I browsed though the wheel thread and didn't seem to see anyone with a set on the ls. Was wondering if anyone would know what size spacers I can run to get a decent fitment, in my mind, I was thinking of 25mm front and 30mm rears. stock size is 18x8 +30 F and 18.8.5 +33 R. I need to stay on budget for the time being with the baby coming

Anyways here's a couple pics of them incase you guys don't know which wheels I'm talking about.

They were originally painted gloss black:


This is after I stripped them, I'm most likely gonna try to repaint them the same silver they originally came in.



Thanks for the help guys!

They look really sporty. it might be interesting to see how it turns out. Take pics when its on!

I think it will look good. As is with the stock fenders including liners, you'll be fine, not quite flush though it will fit it nicely. Of course depends what size tires. With 25 and 30's, you'll be rolling/pulling and shaving with an near effective 0. If that is the goal...

Ya, the plan is to go flush on a budget for the time being with the baby coming in a couple months. I guess once I install the coils I can take some measurements and double check the spacer size I'll need to get the stance I want.

If I sell my other car, then I'll pick up a set of better fitment wheels.

why not polish them? I think that would look stellar vs. the oem silver... especially on an LS, will look like proper aftermarket wheels... but not really

I agree with the polished look as well... but to each their own.

I was originally going to polish them, but 2 of the wheels seems like they have been fixed before by the center around the lug nut holes and they won't polish out.



I tried on one of the wheels and no go.

With 30mm spacers and the right drop it would sit pretty nicely.

Those are made by Rays Eng as rebranded TEs... Awesome wheels and you practically stole them at that price I had them on my Maxima, super light, some 18 lbs per piece... nice buy!!

Ya thats what I kinda figured since both wheels are so similar and they are one of my fav wheels, so I had to jump on it when I saw them for sale.

I just finished light sanding all the wheels hoping to prime them tomorrow and decide on what decent silver wheel paints are out. I know duplicolor has a silver and a gunmetal colour, not sure what would suit best with my bluish grey ext though.

I say keep em silver... The darker wheels will throw off your two tone

Ya I just got 2 cans of the regular silver. Hopefully they'll turn out decent tomorrow if I have time to do the top coats.

i was thinking of just doing my stock rims flat black. then clear coat the lexus center emblum. stoc 93 16"?

Personally I don't think flat black really suit our cars, but that's just my preference.
