Rim Question

I just picked up a 05 LS430 with some ugly 18s already on it. I need some wheels quick and not sure where to go for offset. I'll prob be at stock height for a bit and looking for atleast some 20s.

Would this setup work? If not, would it work with spacers?

20x9 +30 high disc 1.5” lip
20x11 +35 super low disc 3” lip

245/35/20
275/35/20

Any other sizing suggestions would be great! I kinda search but didn't really come up with a concrete answer.

Stick with factory wheels with stock heights.

Use 255/35/20 in the rear....
I had 245/35/20 on 11', not a problem at all.

I am glad these guys are helping you out! Sounds like 20x11 should work out fine with a shave per red square
