Really?

I'm new to the GS and was looking at wheels also. You can fit a 18x10 +10 on the rear, what about fronts? I don't want it way neg cambered out though? Any ideas on what would be flush, front and rear?


Thanks
Josh

Well, what's funny is that I have 20x10 +35 and my car is low... so the wheel is 1mm from touching the ROLLED fender... I imagine having a +40 in the rear with the same width will be perfect. The crappy part is that my front wheels are 18x9.5 +35 up front and they are PERFECT and I could go wider or go with a lower offset (probably a +15)... I will have to use a 20mm+ spacer in the front. We'll see once I mount these wheels. Will do also the LS400 brk upgrade so hopefully the spacer will help it not rub.


BTW: I wont hide it; bought this set @ VSC for 1K shipped. A W E S O M E deal right on time for my tax return to show up!
