Great looking rides all! I am actually just getting started shopping for some new wheels. After looking through this thread I noticed that some of you guys chose +32 and others +38 offsets for the fronts. Any major difference on why? I have seen on some websites, they recommend +32. Any insight on this would be appreciated.

I have +38 on my GS 450h. It depends on the look you want. I wanted flush and close to OEM.

I met a cool guy at a local wheel shop in town who was putting a set of the CV3's on his white GS460 and it look very very nice. I think he was running a 255/30/20 in front and a 285/30/20 in the rear. The car looked great even at stock ride height

Nice... We don't recommend 255 in the front so he's doing his own thing

Out of curiosity, why are 255's not recommended? When looking at the specs of them, they would appear to work.

B/C most tires in that size do rub when you make a complete turn....some people have run 255 with no issues, there are a couple of threads about it. Its also a tougher tire size to find in some cases.

Thanks!

They had a forged series. I don't see them on the website anymore.
