Offset help please.
New to the forum and have a quick question that I couldn't seem to find in other threads. I just got a 2014 GS 350 F Sport RWD and am in the market for wheels and was wondering if this fitment would work (just got Tanabe springs so the car will be lowered):
20x9 +32 on 245/35/20
20x10 +45 on 275/30/20
Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

For me, Poke is when the lip of wheel extends past the vehicle's body when viewed from above. When i measured for my set, 9" et32 was closer to being flush w/the body w/maybe 1-2mm poke. However 10" et45 was slightly tucked by about 3-5mm, something you may not even notice but I did. I want my wheels to have the same amount of poke. Worst case more rear poke but not more front. An et40 might be a better balanced fitment for a 10" wheel. Otherwise go 10.5" et45 to fill in the 3-5mm difference.

Front= 9" et37 or 9.5" et32
Rear= 10" et40 or 10.5" et45
These fitments should be flush give or take a few millimeters. How much do you plan on lowering your car?

I am lowering the car with Tanabe springs so nothing too drastic. Just want to make sure that I have no rubbing issues at all.

Best combo Is 9" et 32 or 30 and 10.5" et 45. My personal preference.

From my understanding, the rears will be fine. The front if you got with (Front= 9" et37 or 9.5" et32) it might not be correct. I believe if you go with a wider wheel like 9.5" et 32, you will poke out more than if you with 9" et 32. Check with all other wheel manufacture, Most will recommend front 9" et 32-37 and rear 10.5" et 45.
Best combo Is 9" et 32 or 30 and 10.5" et 45. My personal preference.
