Just wondering if there are any fitment issues for an 18x10 +44 wheel for the rear on a ls400. The fronts would be 17x9 +44. Also, what size tires you guys would you guys recomend?

thanks.

what year LS is this for?

AoyamaJPN

92 ls400

i found some real volks in my price range. only problem is they are 17x9 in front. 18x10 in back should be ok...

i am wondering about tire size...

idk if i like the idea of a stagger on rim size (17+18) on the LS but i reserve my comments until i see pics.

i think that 18 is the bare minimum since the LS is such a big ****ing car.

if you lower it the rims will look bigger

so, i decided not to get those rims. i am going to be running 18x9.5 all around. what tire size do you guys recomend? 245-40-18 or 245-45-18?

245/45-18

trust me on this, i have 245/40 and the speedo's off a bit and the smog machine *****es at me for having speed inconsistencies (passes though)

245/45/ will be a good tire choice. If you lower it then you will have to lower the tire profile to accomodate.

i had problems fitting my front wheels in 19x8.5+33. the spokes are not clearing the front caliper. i'd say it's more because of the wheel design. i am going to buy spacers and extended lugs in order to make it fit. hopefully this will give you an idea of how close you're working at.

Well, I plan to lower it about 1"... will the 245/45 combo work without rubbing?

In all honesty I would drop down to 245/40 b/c that is the profile (40) I am running now; although I have 235/40 so my tire is not as wide as yours, however I am having no rub issues at all. My car is also lowered 1" on H&R springs. Not sure of 245/45 will rub or not, you may catch it going over large bumps and dips.
