What are you dropped on?

here's me with the "fat" set up...( I'm probably going to "inch" up to 20's, I have come to the decision that,"certain sacrifices must be made.")[INSERT]130470[/INSERT]

i got my ls430 tinted in like 2001-2002. itz been a while. but if i remember correctly itz like 20% on the front and 10% on the back. got them tinted at california tint, inc. on rosemead, CA. had a bunch of my cars tinted there in the past. they do a pretty good job.

im dropped on tanabe springs. i mean, for sure 20's would look nicer on the LS (especially if it's slammed), but with the fat setup i don't even need to care much about rims getting damaged, plus the comfort level is still GOOD! don't regret gettin 19's at all

I went 19's with some sidewall because I wasn't willing to sacrafice too much ride and on-the-road feel. And I didn't want VIP...

Down the side view... This was on a steep driveway and made the front sit a little high, and I've since lowered the front a little, so the combination result is that the front now that the whole car sits like the rear appears in this photo.

19's look too small for this car imo....especially with a stepped lip.

Turbo, is the rear rubbing? You need to shave the fenders a little.

No rubbing except when there are 4 people in the car AND it goes over a big dip at speed (this with my Tein CS set pretty soft the way I run it). And in that event it rubs very lightly at the ~9:00 position on the tire where the plastic ground effects trim attaches inside the wheel opening (doesn't rub anywhere that you can see in the above photo). I could spend 15 minutes adjusting the mounting tab and eleminate the rubbing, but it really isn't an issue. I can't see any sign on the tire or the car where it's rubbing, and it only happens about once a month or so in my driving. The setup is the max track width that will fit without any significant rubbing, though. LOL Looks very beefy from the rear.

so the rear is 19X9, +38 with 275/40/19??
Just taking a guess.

Right on the tires and very good guess on the wheels -- just a little more width and corresponding offset -- 19 x 9.5" and 45-mm offset.

Guys

I assume you need lowered suspension for a fat setup on 19s still?

I just bought these rims just wondering what everyone thinks and how they will look on black on black 2001 ls430

Very nice...I had a set of 19's but never came around to putting them on, then finally I sold them a couple days ago and now am looking for a set of twenties...
