Default LS430 OEM 18"s with spacers?

Is anyone running spacers on their lowered LS430 with OEM 18s? Does anyone have pics? I want to see what size spacers I should get front and back. Im thinking 25-30mm for the rear and maybe 15mm for the front. Any advice is appreciated.

I have the wheels already but I've never run spacers before and need to know what size I should get to make them look good lowered.

BNR34 has done the spacers with OEM 18s. He went KICs, 15mm (up front). He converted his OEM air to springs with a slight drop. Check out these threads...

Be sure to change the wheel studs if needed.
