Should i get these rims?
Should i get these rims for my 92 black sc400? I was going to go with 20x8.5 or maybe 9 all around. If so what tire size and offset should i go with? I also plan on lowering the car.

those rims are made by STERN wich I believe is a subsidery of ADR...they are relatively inexpensive...and you know what!! they look better in person
we have a stern wheel exactly like that one at our dealership, and I must say, if you don't mind getting a one piece wheel and want to save thousands this choice isn't really all that bad!!!

Well everyone would like to save money on their rims but i don't want to save money and then turn around and not have good quality. If i had the money i would go with Iforged but im only 19 and i pay for my own car insurance policy which is not cheap so i can't afford 3 thousand dollar wheels. What im basically askin is i don't want people to think im cheap by puttin these type of wheels on my lexus, and i def don't want to hit a pothole and have a cracked rim. Ive heard Stern used to be the HRE of rims back in the day.

I'd buy it if it was available in staggered setup....and i would'nt give a rip about what others think of me. LOL!!!
As for potholes....it may help a bit to pump up your tires to a higher psi....at one pt...i had 48 psi....rock solid.

I found a car on CarDomain with those wheels. They actually look pretty good in 19's. I think
any larger would be WAY too much.

I don't know how they look in person, but they look good online. If you can't afford $3000 for wheels...then this doesn't look like a bad option.
Let us know if you get these and for how much.

Speaking of which, does anyone know of any rims similar to this (heavy lips, one peice, staggered size available, relatively inexpensive ($375/rim or so), except they are 5-star instead of 6?
I am just curious.

That rim has a very high end look to it.. There are some fellaz on the east coast riding on ADR's, I believe Sterlings is the model name and they seem to hold up fairly well.
Good choice for low cost.
