just for now some 06 Lexus LS430 rims, customer at work left these cause he bought some new ones. nothing were wrong with them so i slapped some 245/45/17's on them and i have to say they look really really nice. i paired it with some 30mm spacers which filled in the gaps completely but it was too dangerous and handled like **** so i took them off. and yes they clear LS400 calipers.

seem like a lot of you are running really low offsets with a wide rim. that being said i have a set of wheels and the backs are the only ones im concerned about. they are 18x9.5 +8. is that going to stick out of the fender or will i be pretty close to flush? lance feel free to chime in since your the king of all wheel whoring!! tires i would be using are 225 40.

CheddarSC4: Depending on your camber, your wheel itself will poke out around a little less than a half inch, but your tire sizes will be perfectly fine if your fenders are rolled. Hope that helps.

I think I'd be ok with a little poke but don't wanna look like a "vato" haha. I guess I could do a little pull if I have to

That 9.5 +8 wouldn't poke out any more than my rear set up, should be fine. My 97 had 10.5 +15 with just a roll flat. And I currently have 11" +20 rear. An inch an 1/2 less wheel with +8 shouldn't have any issues.

stock 1999 sc300

18x10 +18 with 265/35/18 Pilot Sports on all four... coilovers in the mail...

Will this fit for the moment?

Option 2

F 18x8.5 +18, R 18x10 +18 same tires will this look noticeably weird?

The reason for the tires is because they are taking up space and I need to use them or sell them and the Miro 368 wheels are on sale for only $600.
