Is it hard to get wheels with the right offset for these cars or do people like that Jeep Wrangler look?

0 OFFSET?! Must have some pretty hi-disks up front. That's wild.




Fleshed out my rears a ton, so now it’s 255/35 on 11j with -12.5deg.

Stock body lines, with room for wider lips / more camber up front. Probably go 0.5″ wider up front for a 10.5/11j setup all around. Want my camber to look more squat all around. The fronts are just lookin' a little too shy right now! haha

Hello,

this is the way how to look good on 16' original wheels. 7J 16' ET50. Need 15mm spacers to clear the calipers. I have no idea what car they have come from but I love them. Do you have some idea..?

Interesting. LS460 wheels from '07+ were 5x120 bolt spacing so installing them on a 5x114 of the other Lexus cars required adapters.

Did not want to make a new thread and I went through the first 30 pages of this one to get an ideal. Will wheels with these specs fit the 98 LS and how much fender work is needed? I already rolled all 4 corners previously to fit different wheels.

18x9.5 Front offset +30, Rear offset +22

Thanks in advance.
