I just got a great deal on some stock rims off an '02 SC430. I want to put them on my 94 LS400, as the original rims are looking really tired. A couple quick qusetions I hope you all can help out with:

1. Will these wheels bolt right on or do I need front and/or rear spacers. If so, what width spacer?

2. What is a good tire size for this set up? 245 40 18 or maybe 235 45 18?

Once I install the new wheels, I will look to upgrade to H&R or Tanabe lowering springs to enhace the look and drive.

Thanks in advance for your feedback! John

 

1. will bolt on to '89-94 LS400s just fine, nothing else needed.
2. the correct size is 245/45-18 to match the outer diameter of your 226/60-16 stock tires. 225/45-18 would also be within tolerance.

 

Awesome! Thanks!!

hello everyone im new as you can see and this is my 94 LS400 the rims are 18" SVT powdercoated black

 

hmmm Interesting!

 

they look nice in person but there 10" wide so they rub when i hit a dip or bump not causing any damage to rim or car just eats at the tire some

 

They don't look bad, just need to lower it and get rid of that fender gap! :-D
