Depends how flush you want. 15mm on the front with the OEM 18's is fine. The rears 5-10mm more. Since tire sidewall profiles vary a bit, I'd suggest measuring it once the springs are on the car to verify how much spacer you feel appropriate with.
thanks Mike, i was actually gonna do 5mm in the front and it was the back wheels that i couldn't decide between 15 or 20mm. with these 245s i'm already 20mm up from stock and the fronts are pretty much just where i want them, but my goal is to have the fronts and backs be exactly in line with each other (each coming out to the same point)
Not yet, too swamped to bring in another project. I still have my SC, but trying to get rid of it to maybe fill in the spot with another one. Nothing gets done when you have 3 project cars LOL.
mannn i miss that car too! defiantly an inspiration when it comes to fitment
relevant
17x10.5+27 fits all the way around with the baby ufc1x brakes with no spacer
front pictured is just the stock 17x8+50 tho
Eastwind, I drive through Detroit quite often (drive tractor trailers for a living) and I have also driven my car up in that area(have relatives and friends in Detroit) with my 18's on and have had no problems at all. Agreed 17's will give you a little more cushion under the rim, but if you decide to do 18's, you will be fine as well.

sweet ride man,,where did you get the led side view mirrors?
GH5T, yes, stock height. I assume it sits like that because the rear sags a little. I'm going to drop it, but maybe only an inch in the rear and a couple in the front. The rear tires rub a little over big bumps and dips right now, so I'll have to go with a slightly more narrow tire in the rear also.

Rear fenders - remastered (not finish at moment), front - oem. Be carefuly before buyng wheels, "R" disc its diferent like "O" disc, and possible, u have a brake calipers fitment problems Next porblem - NEVER ROLLING YOUR FENDERS! Its very inmportant double sided contruction, never cuting a fenders before welding a new points of fenders. Good look. https://www.clublexus.com/g/album/3342763
Front wheels spacer (Custom made) 21mm *, Rim size: 38ET (real ET19). outer shape = like a rear
How would a 19x10 21 / 19x11 24 sit on a 99? On coilovers. Simple roll or do i need a pull too?
rear: 255/35 on r19 11/24 rims - need welding with contact welder rear arh before cutting center zone. No rolling if possible! .
front: 235/40 on r19 10/21 rims - no waranty about inner side (cornering and others). Outer side - wider / streched, i think - be ok if no spacer need (brake support - very wide!)
compare to my LS (look at photo of my setup for imagination) ,below - examples of my setup and your setup. http://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php...et2=24#content
