Default Where can I find?

I know this is probably in the wrong forum, but where can I find Rominl's guide to wheel fitment? I thought it would be in the tire forum but I couldnt find it? thanks,

Now if you knew it was the wrong forum, why did you post it there?


It's a sticky right up top in the wheel forum

Now I have read the "Sticky." I will no longer ever post about wheel fitment issues. From this point on, I will jump on the bandwagon and totally make all users feel stupid when they post about rim widths and tire sizes, and refer them to the "Sticky." LoL J/K

Lettuce,

I haven't seen a post where a user has been refered to the 'sticky' and called stupid. Please don't start doing that yourself; even in jest it sounds rude and its not what our ClubLexus forum is about.

The 'sticky' (which simply means it sits at the very top of the forum for maximum visibility and to make it easy to find) is a resource that Rominl spent a good amount of time developing and is very helpful (hopefully) to our members. There is a reason for a FAQ like that - because the same questions keep getting asked over and over and over again. Eventually people get tired of answering them, especially when it's obvious that the person posting didn't search or even look all that hard.

There will always be questions that don't get answered by the FAQ, but its a good start.

yes, i want to stress that by putting up the sticky i don't discourage people from posting. if you have questions still after reaiding the sticky, by all means ask, i will do my best to answer. but the bottom line is i want people to read too to learn

this is the reason why I said what I said. At one time, I felt like I was being a bother. Heres the thread as follows:

Re: Is this a correct setup for a 2nd gen GS300?

everytime I ask this question about setup, I always get different replys, anyway's here it goes:
F 20x8.5 w/245/35/20. +35/38 offset. High disk

R 20x10 w/275/30/20. +44/42 offset. Normal disk.

Wheels I am looking at our the Work Equip's, and the Rezax's II

I have ajustable coilovers. JIC, I would like 0 gap, once the wheels are on.

damnit, guys, don't reply him people who don't read my faq gets no reply!!!

hehe, j/k, here you go.

the front and back are all good. if you wanna play safe, get 38 and 44. if you want to look a bit better, get 35 and 42. the front you MIGHT rub a bit on the very edge. the rear you might rub the fender tab but a little bit shaving would solve all problems.

another problem with the setup if if you go 0 gap, the front will have some problems, but that's for everyone with 20s, no offset and stuff can help. you will rub the top of the wheel well pretty bad. me, synergy, and jawnthen all has 20s and we all rub. i modded the fender (top) by using heat gun and push the whole thing up. also on the fender tab (there are two big tab if you look at it), i push them up to.

without doing that, you will rub pretty bad when going to 0 gap on 20s
