Default 2008 ls 460

I recently just bought an 08 lexus LS 460 and I wanted to know what exact rim size I can use on stock suspension. I may bag it later but one step at a time.
I have read some threads on 22s and I’m curious to see if I can fit that rim on my car without rubbing with the stock set up and proper offsets. I’ve been wanting to buy an LS for quite sometime and it was worth the wait.

I have a 16, LS460. It's on 22-inch wheels with stock suspension. Zero rubbing or problems. The only problem is watching out for the bad streets.

Welcome to the forum brother. For wheel fitment, this is a great place to start: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls-...thread-10.html

I would leave it as is, the car dramatically changes with ride quality and handling as u mess with tires and wheels... if your car has the 18 inch wheels if the 19 inch sport rims for that year will bolt on I would put those on only... just my two cents have fun

I think I have 18 inch rims they look so small and I had larger rims on my 2015 Honda accord coupe. Do you think 20 inch rims would drastically affect the ride because the smooth and quiet ride is quite addicting. I’ve got crotch rockets and four-wheel-drive vehicles and Years of fast cars but when I first got in my first Lexus I was blown away. It was so quiet and it’s so incredibly relaxing to drive sometimes I just jump into it and drive around just to wind down. thank you for your response it is most appreciated.

Certainly 20" rims will affect the ride. Whether or not it is drastic can be subjective to the driver. I would say if you find the car so incredibly quiet and relaxing I wouldn't fool with it and spoil what you are enjoying.

Maybe you should post in your regional forum and see if someone in your area has 20" wheels and can give you a demo ride.
