i really wanted to get these rim's here
http://www.hubcap-tire-wheel.com/Pla...eels-Rims.html

but i really was hoping i could get some 20"s in the rear and 18"s in the front. think i could do squeeze them in there with out having to roll the fenders?

Please don't try and get those wheels. It says that offsets are for FWD cars meaning most likely they're really high offsets. Second, the widths of the wheels are anything but impressive. Also, a 18/20" stagger looks goofy.

DRECHIN

how about the off sets for these rims?

http://www.bossmotorsports.com/wheel...ecs.cfm?id=333

i was hoping to get some sporty looking rims with a little lip but nothing really coming out in 18" it's all 20"s and up.

i know at first i thought the staggered looked a little funny to me on some cars but i saw it on one guys soarer and it looked pretty bad ***.

Sometimes an 18/19 or a 17/18 stagger looks alright but two inches different looks funny I think.

It seems like you don't know what much about wheels/widths/offsets so I would recommend reading the very first page of this thread to get a basic understanding of wheels.

I just have to ask a few things because I want to help you out but I nor anyone else can do that if we don't know what you're going for.
1. What's your price range?
2. Are you willing to roll your fenders?
3. What year SC do you have?
4. What kind of look were you going for? Eg big tires vs super flush and stretched tires

I'd recommend looking into the classifieds for some used wheels to find a deal on some quality wheels. Also check other forums on that.

General rules:
Stock body kit - 18's
97+ body - 18s or 19s
Kitted - 18s through 20s

Now all this info you can find if you use the search button but you're new so I'll give you a break. If you post up a picture of what you're looking to do even, maybe we could point you in the right direction

i have a gold 95 sc300

1. for me price doesn't matter, i've been saving up for this build for a long time so i got well over a grand to spend on rims

2. if i have to roll the fenders i'll do so i just want some good looking rims on my 300 once i get my origin body kit. black on black, caz im getting the car wrapped with matt black

4. i was hoping to get some rims with a nice lip. but so far i haven't found anything i like or what seems to fit. as you've put it. to be honest i love the stretched look just cas i personally think it looks bad ***

i respect the advice that your giving me, don't get me wrong, and yes im very newb when it comes to car's,wheels, and parts but i know what i like and if it's on the menu i want it. regardless of how much it may cost me.

btw thanks for the help and the input really appreciate it

btw if you look at bender 25's sc300 it's a perfect example of what im going for... but again more sporty and less cholo looking. check out boss rim 333 and 328 and you'll know what i mean that kind of look. btw heres the link to bender25's sc300

I've seen bender's car, and just let me point out that Work Emitz's (the wheels that he's running) cost around $2500 in those sizes if you can even find a set. Quality wheels are worth their weight in gold compared to the generic crap that's out there.

JDMmuscle's reallyyyyy old wheels:
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-...s-of-pics.html
18x8.5 et20 up front
18x9.5 et20 in the rear

search for CalitriSC's car
18x9.5 et12 front
18x10.5 et15 rear I believe, just ask him


search for slydjunkie's car
Better yet: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-...sc400-225.html
specs on that page

Even look at the guy above this post: PeteSoarer.

Search the classifieds here, register on zilvia.com because they probably have the biggest wheel classifieds of all time. Expect to pay anywhere from a grand (for knockoffs like Rota or Varrstoen) to $2500 if you want to get crazy.

Just do some research on wheels in general anywhere. I can't tell you what you like, but I can point you in the right direction. Hell, read through this entire thread if you have the time. There's a lot of useful info in here, there's also a lot of bull****. I'll be honest, it takes a little bit of time to figure wheel fitment out to the T, but you have to do the work yourself to get there.

Other good links:

Again, all this information has been posted before, but this is a veryyyyy condensed version of what I've learned in the past couple years.

Don't hesitate to ask any other questions, I'll be glad to help, even if I ***** about searching for answers

Hey guys what would be the best tire sizes to run on Front 19x9 +20 offset, Rear 19x10 +20 offset wheels? I will be rolling my front and rear fenders. What tire sizes will give me the best stretch to clear my rolled fenders? I already have a pair of 255/35/19 Toyo T1Rs...would these be ok for my rear setup? Thanks!

LOL This made my day! I need to put those wheels back together and put them back on

Oh I get that, that comment just put a smile on my face

Ok, the only reason I want 40s is because the roads I drive on are anything but smooth. It would help a little with the ride quality, and save my wheels from death. My setup would be 19x9.5 245/40/19 in the front and 19x10.5 255/40/19 in the back. Im thinking about trying it, my plan is to run just enough negative camber so I can have a good offset and still tuck the tire. Hopefully it doesnt look goofy.

Go ahead and try it but if you come back and say it looks funny I'll just be here to say that I told you so haha. When you get into those bigger diameter wheels you will lose a little bit of ride softness, and there's really not a lot you can do about it except to suck it up. Just keep in mind that your overall wheel/tire diameter will be about an inch and a half greater than stock in the rear and about an inch greater up front.
