Default Help! Wheel Spacer Fitment Question!

I have a 2001 GS430.

Mounted on it are 2006 GS430 18X8 wheels with a 45 offset.

I would like to purchase wheels spacers that would SAFELY work for the back wheels only.

I'm trying to achieve a flush or near flush look to the vehicle.

(20mm or 25mm wheel spacers???)

Thanks,
Andrew

i would say a 25mm wheel spacer will do. it will be the same as 18x10 +44 offset if my calculation is correct.

um, kinda...

it's more of a 18x8 +20 offset, all a spacer does is change the offset, but yes, it would be similar to a 10" wide wheel with a high positive offset...

Yes, 18x8 +20. 25mm spacer is most you can do without rubbing ( it will be tight fitment), but thats what you want i guess

18x8 +20 and 18x10 +44/45 they fit the same flush to the fenders...
