20x9 +32 & 20x10.5 +45 will not rub. These are the offsets we have for the VMB9 and there are no rubbing issues. Here are a few pictures of the gunmetal VMB9. Hope this helps

Nice Job !! Thinking about getting all the chrome on mine Vinyl'd or Shadowline. How's the Joe Z catback? Any drone when you're at freeway speed. Just wondering if I need a cat back or axle back.

Thank you. I recorded few videos but I had windows down and there are too much wind noise so I'll do it again tmrw at cruising speed with windows up. Since there are so many traffic here, I can't record it on the freeway. I will record it when I cruise on the local road again and make some more videos. I had axle back on other Lexus that I owned (IS and LS) but damn they were too quiet for me.

Added exhaust clips. Not that great since I was trying to hold my phone and record at the same time... If you cruise and do light acceleration, you can barely hear exhaust sound. With music on, you can't even hear any exhaust sound during light acceleration when you cruise. When you step it little hard, medium +, then it sounds pretty loud.

Here is youtube video clips on revving in neutral, medium/hard acceleration and stop and go traffic / cruise mode on light acceleration.

Nice! U guys are rocking my style with the red lugs. Lol. Even the wheel design and color are eerily similar to my SSR cv01. Good taste. Lol. Sadly, my drop isnt as aggressive though.
