here is his car with 10 and 12...hopefully he will see the thread and chime in a bit more, if he is running different arms, but looking at it, it doesnt seem as such. If i remember reading his thread, he just used a roller for the rear to pull it out.
I am static on bc's...the rears are completely maxxed out including perches all the way down, fronts are all the way down, not touching preload...still need to decide if I am going to cut shocktower or not...it just bangs a lot right now.

I don't know that I can pull that off, curious to know how he pulled the fenders with just a roller... (that has to be a new thread if it's not already!) I'm just hoping I can fit a 20X11 +15 without hitting the strut tower on the inside and doing little mods to the fender... starting to look like it's possible. Thanks for all the insight, lots of great information.

copied directly from the thread linked below, this is the best info i can offer:
BTW this offset calculator is really helpful to me

this is all the info on the offset i am able to share for our ls430's:
without rolling fenders lowered on coilovers i guess around +25 with a stretched tire (like a 245x30x20 or 255x30x20). with rolled rear fenders then around +20 with shaved rear fenders around +15 all with the same size rear tires and on a 10" wide rear rim. give or take a few mm but i know i can't be that far off. with a mild pull of the rear fender around 10mm and the longer than stock rear arms adding more negative camber you could run a 0 or -5mm if you were on a 245x30x20 on a 20x10" rear rim. all these specs would be very flush with the tire up agains the fender all close like
please let me know if anyone else has a different opinion or real world knowledge...
*****my closest comparison would be right now i am sitting at a +20 offset (super flush in the rear) on a 20x10 255x30x20 with 5mm shorter rear arms and a shaved rear fender. so if i ran the 5mm longer than stock rear arm that would be a difference of 10mm right there so a +10 offset, and with a fender pull of around 10mm i could run a 0 offset at that point on a 255x30x20 20x10", so on a 245x30x20 you could run what a -5 or such negative offset. if you wanted to pull the fenders more than you could run more negative. good luck*****
