what's your offset?
 
I like the style 95 BMW wheels and I think they'd look great on the LS when it's lowered. however, they have an offset of 24. I'd rather not do any body work if I can avoid it so I was wondering if some members can provide me with some pics of their wheel setup and offset, and how it works for them

The offset is 44 if I remember correctly your biggest problem is finding rims that clear that front caliper because of it being 4 piston.

What size wheels 18, 19, 20's? Width 8, 8.5, 9...? Tire size? Also any other suspension mods planned? These are all factors that will affect if the wheel combo will fit. Also you can check these threads for reference https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls-...nce-guide.html https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls-...-ls430-62.html

19x9 and 19x10 tire size is gonna be 255/40 all around. I have RS-R super down springs. I looked at those threads too

Those bmw wheels will not clear the brake calipers in the front. I ran them on my LS400 and needed spacers and they will be poking.

they are the worst lol you need like a scrubber nail brush so it doesnt scratch, it's the only way...so annoying.

I'm thinking some VIP Work wheels or the like....I'm no stranger to those.

I just bought a set of these wheels and am trying to figure out clearance and tire sizes, any info?

In this picture I have 18" ET2? wheels and they didn't fit in front without 5mm spacers because brakes and as you can see wheels come too much out. These were temporary wheels.
