Default Most Aggressive Wheel Specs Anyone???

Can anyone help me out with their experience of the widest wheel and lowest offset put on an RX350? Pics would help. I'm planning to go with 22x9.5 with 255/30 tires, and want to go as aggressive as possible without looking like a lowrider.

i have 22" rims on a 255/30 tire. rims are 9.5" wide. and i can tell you. the tires dont really fit width wise. they are short so i have a nice size lip if you want to call it of the rim stickin out past the tire. bc of the type of rim and its black edge, it looks like it was done on purpose. so it doesnt look that bad

they make a 265/35/22 tire but if you check the dimensions on that tire its too big and will hit the strut, so if i was to do it again. id find a 22" x 9" rim. but they are very rare to find one that narrow.

sprinkles,

You got any pics? I am surprised this thread is kind of dead. I know the RX is not exactly a performance vehicle but still...
