Nice wheels! I have them too!

Looks like you have better specs though i.e. lower ET's
Are those 19's?

Thanks!! Yeah they're 19's I had to put a 5mm spacer up front cause they were a mid disk, thinking of dropping down to a 3mm spacer instead still debating.

I have mid-disk too! So 5mm is enough to clear the brakes? I always thought I need 10mm. But I have 20", don't think it woups matter?

What is your offsets on the fronts?? I'm running a +19 disk B plus the 5mm spacer which makes it a +14 offset. The wheels sizes doesn't matter it's your offsets that are the important part of the wheel set up. have you check the gap between the back face and the caliper??

My fronts are actually lo-disk so I need to switch the faces. Front are +39 or +44 so they are far from an aggressive setup

I'm sure nobody here will ever get tired of that car.

It's the car that made me interested in the LS430. The Futura LS is the baddest car I've ever seen!
