hey guys, so im going to be picking up some new rims within this next month as planned(: YES FOR ME !
i recently, (lastweek) slammed my ride on the rims i have right now !
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...y-slammed.html
SO im looking at offsets for these rims now to throw on my 2gs300 !

i talked to mike over at PLATINUM VIP (great guy by the way with one of the sickest 3gs i have seen in awhile), and he recommended going +0 in the rear & +12 in the front to get that flush look.
now the rims im picking up offer offsets in +0, +12, +22, +30.
any opinions on what i should do, im new to the scene here and im really trying to have my car look SICK ! i am a low baller tho due to school -__-, but i know it can be done !
ONE MORE QUESTION, im so slammed now im having problems with my uppercontrol arm ball joint being banged against the wheel well, will SAGE FRONT RCA KIT help solve this problem?

 

I don't believe an RCA kit will help with the banging, because it's due to how low you are. The only way to keep it from banging is to raise the GS a bit more or to get some super stiff spring rates I believe. If i'm wrong someone will correct me.

 

nice wheel you getting there! ehehhe.

 

30's conservative nice
22's aggressive nice
12's & 0's whip out the pocket book! Ouch.

 

why do you say whip out the pocket book on the 12's & 0's
i am planning on doing fenderwork, i have a guy apparently that rolls & pulls fenders.
but other than that, what other costs shall i encounter?

 

12 and 0 should be good. i agree with his advice. 12 in front 0 in rear
and to get rid of the UCA banging the wells, u need to drill a hole. search it. its common

 

I had no idea the BBS LM reps even came that low of an offset. I figured low +20's was the lowest. As for your UCA issue, you can cut a small hole in the top of the fender well to clear. Theres been a few guys with ait bags who have done this here.

 

If rolling and pulling is already on your agenda, then you may be alright. If your planning on doing 12/0's in the front, and slamming the car w/ retarded camber angles. I think that less angle and more work ($$$) on the fenders would net better results.

Now I'm writing off memory of cars I've seen recently, so do not take my word as a commandment. Take your time and carefully research before you just dive in. Me personally if I have camber greater than 5, or need to pull a fender too much, it's time to look for another wheel.

 

im TRYING to avoid cutting into the frame, how much do you think i would have to go up to clear the ucas?

 

a good ammount, i was tucking about this much and they would rarely hit. Only on a very large dip.



But now im this low and they were hitting constantly, so i cut the uca hole.

 

Ant, love the setup!

 

thanks, i appreciate it! unfortunately ive grown bored of the wheels already lol

 

beautiful set up anthony, im hoping i can pull of the varrstoens on my BLACK gs.
what would you recomend? the hyper black or maybe an all polished rim?

 

why is that?

 

I believe they only come in hyper silver and hyper black. I have the hyper black which are actually more gunmetal and the hyper silver which a friend of mine has on his IS250 (weak sized ones) are actually really dark.

Honestly i have no idea, the classic mesh style wheel just isnt doing it for me anymore. They look good imo but im just ready to move on
