Question Wheel suggestion...

I am new very new here. I will like to change my 06 GS 300 wheel to either 19" or 20".

Can the tire pressure sensors on the OEM wheels be fitted on those aftermarket wheel?

What rim width you guys prefer to prevent back fender cur or roll? i.e. 8, 8.5, 9 or etc...

Welcome to Club Lexus. To the best of my knowledge if Lexus sensors don't fit your new wheels you are out of luck. Either disable the system or fool it by installing the sensors in a go kart tire in the trunk.

I hope that you can get a wider wheel than a 9 in the back.. I havent had time to really look at the rear fender, but I bet you could get a 9.5 or 10 in there easy with the right offset.

Thanks. If my lexus sensors didbn't fit in my new rims , is there any other aftermarket sensors can be used with my 06 GS 300 (I mean any error code show up)?

Just for my information, how can I disable the sensor by myself (any instruction will be appreciate).

I want to get wider wheel too, front 8.5 and rear 9. Do you have any suggestion which brand and model number of the wheel can fit them in? Which offset is the best for front and rear in this matter.
