Default Buying HRE~~~ Fitment for UCF10/11??

Alright guys.........I decide to go with HRE 547s. What's max. I can do in both F/R on 93 LS400? Can I do 20by9 in the front and 20by9.5 or maybe 20by10 in the rear? And what are the offsets for F/R wheels? I did try to put on a set of M.H.T. Metallica F:20by8.5 and R:20by10 with 43 offset......But the rear wouldn't fit. With F:245-35-20 and R:255-35-20 or 265-35-20?
Wheel Kinetics....Can you give me a quote on a set of those?

The LS will easily handle a 20x10 on the rear.

I'd recommend 20x9 +37 front and 20x10 with as low as +35 in the rear- for more conservative types, the wheel can be moved in to +45, but you can only get 2.5" lip on the rear this way.

I've done this on my brother's 94 GS300, but in 19":
HRE 448R 19x9 +37, 2.0" outer lip
HRE 448R 19x10 +37, 3.0" outer lip

+40 is the most positive you can go with the offset on the rear and still have the centercaps fit over the axle stubs (with the 3" lip). Or you could go 1.5" front lip and 2.5" rear lip for a more conservative rear offset (like +45).

Talk to us, Denni$!

BTW: rubber- how about 245/35zr20 and 275/30zr20.

The MHT 20x10 +43 didn't fit? How so? Seems very odd...

Are you sure I can fit 20x10 in the back?....I am talking about the 1st. gen of LS.
They say the 1st gen. LS(90-94) is not as wide as the 1st gen GS or the new LS. I am now runnig 20by8.5 with 38 offset and 245-35-20, and the car is lowered........I already need to trim a little in the rear quarter panel so it won't rub. And now I only have another 1/8 inch of space.(To trim to the edge of the quarter panel.)

Sure.. what finish are you looking at? Polished, chrome, brushed aluminum, powder coated, etc? The retail on those wheels in a standard painted finish is $5350. Of course I can help you out on that price. Please let me know on finish and I'll give you a formal quote. Thanks!

Funny, I've done these before with no complaints... granted, it has been a while. If we use 20x9.5 +45, the additional wheel width all goes inboard when compared to a 20x8.5 +38.

Is the car lowered?

I would like the polish finish.........And the best size I want for the F is 20x9 and I would like to fit 20x10 in the rear(I want the largest lip I can fit on this car for both F/R)
Thank You so much for your help~~~~~~~~~
