TIA,

If you're gonna do it you should go with the 18's. That's just my opinion, though. I think you may not be as satisfied when you have the 17's mounted.

saleen or cobra 260m are the dopest mustang rims in a sc in my opinion if its dropped right and the paint scheme matched then definately YES!

What is the widest tire I can fit on the 18x 10 w 22mm offsets on the rear of my car? 2000 SC3 lowered, fenders will be rolled. I would like to do a 285 35 18

I'd go with choice #3

I don't think Mustang wheels are hot at at all. Billet is soooo 1989. Cool times but they are gone!!
If you are wanting to go with another OEM wheel from another make I'd do Nissan or Toyota. There are some BMW M6 wheels that look absolutely incredible. You can go the replica route and not pay high priced with lots of the wheels.....it's the tires you have to worry about when they wear out super fast.....SLOW DOWN!! Hahaha!!

Is there any room to play with on the rear to fit a wider tire like a 275 35 0r 285 30? I plan on rolling my rear fenders. Im pretty low too.

Go take a peek at Lexxium's thread. He and I have the Saleens which are 18x9 +24 all around. We are both running 235 series tires. Mine are 235/40. Not sure about his. Anyway, they sit right even with the rear panel.

I will never understand putting another OEM brand wheels on another OEM car, especially a Lexus.

the fr500's look good, and i always liked the saleens on paco's car....they are 18" stock but can be had larger...wanted to put the saleens in black chrome on my mom's 02 gs3 sport design...

i dont like how the g35 wheels look on em...but so many nice aftermarket wheels too...but then again, i'm a gs not an sc owner....will be getting one soon though

I think they look pretty good!

I personally would look for something from another Lexus (prob a 2IS or 3GS) but as long as the owner like's 'em and wants something different, I've got no problems putting Mustang, Infiniti or even Hyundai rims on a Lexus. Yes, even some of the Hyundai rims fit and look decent!

I've kinda been trying to keep these wheels on the DL so I'm the first with them, but it'll be a while before I can buy some wheels so here they are. Same sizes and offsets as the Saleens and other aftermarket replicas, but they're deep-dish versions of the 10th anniversary Cobras. Look toward the bottom of this link.

What think ye? I think the black with polished deep-dish lip would look dope on my red car.
