Are you complacent? From what I read I think you want to know if you can run 20" wheels on an LS400, the answer is; sometimes. It depends on what wheel you are looking at.

I'd look in the wheel/tire section and see what others have on their rides.

You can run 20s and lower you 98 LS400 without rubbing only if you run the correct wheel width, offsets and tire sizes and tire brand(cuz some tires are fatter.) Basically there shouldn't be any problem. For the ULTIMATE STAGGERED SET UP and best look, you'll always need to do some wheelwell modifications.

Go to an experienced wheel shop and they'll tell you the correct offset you will need to get 20's and be able to lower it.
