Default LS430 Fitment.. Offset.. Lets get things cleared up!

Ok, these is SOOO much talk about how large the front brakes and calipers are on the LS430. We really need to list out all the wheels and offsets that have been successful and unsuccessful when trying to clear the calipers. Only list wheels that WILL and WILL NOT clear the calipers and have been actually tested.

I will be getting my new wheels in next week and all this confusion has really bugged me.

The rims I ordered are ASA 19x8.5f and 19x9.5r. The front have a 35+ offset and the rear are 41+ offset. They are not a deep dish rim, so I'm assuming that this helps (because to have a 35+ offset the hub of the rim would have to be pretty deep.)

Anyone think I'll have clearance issues?

If no one knows, I will post pictures and results after mounting them.

Justin

OK, this http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp , will help you. Just plug in the numbers and you should have a better idea of where your wheels will sit. Hope it will help...

Offsets have NOTHING to do with Big brakes unless of course you use spacers... It's all in what disk type the wheel is.
