Default **help**21" Giovanna rims on 95'SC400

I was wondering if you can put 21inch rims on a 1995 Lexus SC400 b/c I still see alot of space between the 20inch rims and the fender that is on now. I was thinking about 245/35/21 & Giovanna Drama rims.Will I need to do any modifications???And if I did what I need to do to make em fit?

Oh...PLEASE don't go there...first off, I doubt the 21's will fit...most likely, you'll it the suspension knuckle unelss you can find a 10 series tire. And secondly, Giovanna sucks. :Rolleyes:

If you want to get rid of the gap with a 20" setup, just lower the car on COILOVERS.

yeah 19s are perfect for that car because when you put 20's on that car it raises the suspension alot and I to believ that putting 21 inch giovanna's is ghetto and i would laugh if i saw them on lexus not give the person props. If you want 21s go with lowenhart or Hre otherwise you should stay with the teenage rims.

20's can look OK but 19's look really good. What more important than size is the WHEEL quality and style itself. Too many people are hung up on getting "dubz"...even if they're POS ghetto dubz...

Now the big crazy is to one up "dubz" and get 21", 23", 24", etc...

It's gotten to the point where it's kinda wacky. Only a few cars look OK with anything larger than 20's. Only a few cars look ok with anything larger than 19's...

Putting 21's on your SC is like someone with Civic trying to squeeze on 20's...just ridiculous.
