Can you pm me? I have these wheels on my 460 and need to replace one of the front rims.

Deondre, the lip looks like the $700 carbon fiber for a fraction of the cost. Nice Job.

Sitting here racking my brain around what I want/need to do. Bone stock 07' GS350 AWD. I live in Colorado and commute on weekends into Wyoming quite a bit. Snow/ice packed roads are the norm in winter. I will not be lowering the car at all because of this.

Looking for a summer wheel/tire package. So, likely 20s. Don't want to roll fenders. Just need it to clear with a loaded car while traveling. This car will see a lot of hwy miles on it at 80mph, so a smooth ride is critical.

20x8.5 front +40
20x10 Rear +40

What size tire do you recommend?



or should I match the width for simplicity and rotating.

Because you do have an AWD system, you have to get the tire sizes very close to each other or else it will throw it off. It's possible to get it closely matched but if I were you, I'd do same width all around. Instead, you can change the offsets on the rear to be lower to make it look staggered! Good luck.

I wouldn't bother with AWD at this point. the tires that would work for that would be 235/35/20 and 275/30/20 but i don't think the front wheel gap would look appealing. Look into a 20x9 square set up with the possibility of staggering the offsets.

Well, here is my 07' AWD GS350

Did not stagger.
20x8.5 F1R F29s 35offset on F&R
245/35r20 GT Radial Champiro 328 all around.
No drop.

Might drop the front a hair. But will run as-is for now.

Man this car is looks LOVELY. I love seeing stock cars on nice rims with no drop. I hate all that wear and tear on the suspension. Does it rub at all??? When you turn halfway and all the way, does it rub really bad? ENJOY YOUR RIDE LOOKS BEAUTIFUL GODBLESS!

it barely rubs up front on the inner fender liners at 1/2 way. The will self clearance IMO. No rub at full turn.

Hey guys, looking for some opinions on tire sizes. I'm looking to get a staggered 19" setup on my RWD 07. 2 19x8.5 up front +35 offset and 2 19x9.5 out back +40 offset. Can anyone recommend good tire sizes?

Default Please, need help!

Hello guys, I'm from Sweden so please excuse my bad english ^^.
I just bought a 3gs 450h and absolutely LOVING it!
Unfortunately these cars are pretty rare here and it's hard to get any information about changing to aftermarket wheels. I want to buy some 20" wheels for it but need to know some things first. I've searched this thread but didn't find any answers to my situation.
My car is only lowered around an inch in the front just to even out the height difference between the front and rear. It's a daily driver and I'm using it pretty much, so I don't want to lower it any more or do any modification to it like for example roll, pull or shave fenders or change camber and such. If I go with concave rims I want as much "concaveness" as I can get without any modification. And If I go with wheels with lips instead, I want as much lip as possible without any modification.

So my question is: What width and offset on 20" rims should I go with for front and rear on my car (that isn't lowered much at all and don't want to do any modification to it) to get as much "concaveness" or lipsize as possible?
And what size tires should I go with (rather not too stretched)?
I don't want it to rub anywhere or anything like that.
Please help me, I want to be able to buy these before summer here in Sweden ends and it's time for the winter-wheels again :P.
