Excellent effort...
Now we need a sticky for all potential off sets for front and rears.
Keeping in mind wheel size and suspenion heights.
this one will not be easy but if everyone here posts wheel type, size, offset and brand we can collect all of this and I'll compile it for a sticky.
Knowing the suspension type of how much its dropped from factory is also good to have.
I'll post a tip I found for wheel fittment so you can determine the max wheel widths and also get an idea of the off-set required. I haven't had the time to try it yet on a GS but for old school hot-rods it's pretty accurate.

Sorry to hear about your car bro, that sucks. Well, if you do end up getting a first gen, I think that'd be awesome
Oh and by the way, welcome to Club Lexus
