Default Gs400 19" Offset/width for gs

Hey guys,

If i was going to order 19" iForged Senekas for my GS400, which i would want to put 40 series tires on, what offset should i get.

I might also wanna get supra TT brake calipers in the front however, if it makes it so that there is no lip, i will pass that option

basically its gonna be 19x8 19x10 on 40 series tires

id like the look to be like this https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=204398

maybe be able to lower it a bit more than him.

i have stock kit right now but will try to buy sideskirts and front lip

If you're doing a 10 in the rear you definitely don't want to go lower than a 38 offset....you may want to go even higher dependent on how much you're going to lower the car.

My wheels are 19X8.5 37et and 19X10 45et and were made specifically for the GS.

Here is a rear shot.

When you order from iforged they dont give you the offset unless you ask for a "custom" setup. Just make sure you get a High Disk option for the fronts so you can run the TT brakes. I have 19" iforgeds with TT brakes and still have some lip in the front.

I am running 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 which keeps the car within spec. I just bought a fat tire set up to see if I like it. I just think what I have now is a bit too low for me. My wheels were built for big brakes front and rear. I think they have good lip action for being big brake ready.

If you are going to go with IForged read my post about the valve stems. Make sure you go with the three piece wheels.

10 +38? even with 10 +40 unless you run stretched tires you probably will rub already

i have a full guide up in the tire forum (at the top of this forum), please go and read, it has all the info you need
