Hmm I've heard about conversion spacers before, but if I remember correctly the safe minimum for those are like 20mm.
This would make your wheel offsets too aggressive and not fit the car.

^^^ I would agree with that. Those wheel specs as they are are near the limit in terms of rubbing, especially if you plan to drop the car.

See the aftermarket wheels thread to see if you can find similar wheels to yours and what other owners may have done on a drop and/or spacers. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...exclusive.html

With a 20mm spacer on the 35 offset fronts, you will definitely rub. Rolling and pulling the fender MIGHT be able to pull off the specs if you're not going to lower.

If you can't use the wheels, I have an LS460 and might be interested in the wheels. TIA Dave
