Wheels
It's 45mm offset from what I have read on the specs online. So I am wondering if the 18x8.5 50mm offset IS350 wheels will fit properly up front on my GS where I am currently running 18x8 45mm offset??
Thanks,
Rock

Ya you should be good bro, if you wanna make sure check and see if you have about an inch of clearance in between your inner tire and wheel well if you do then it should fit fine no spacer needed,cuz it's only around 11mm more positive offset than your current setup if I'm not mistaken which is a little less than half an inch. Someone please chime in and correct me if I'm wrong, sc300jz you know your stuff what do you think?

Hi, this is my first post in lc. I have GS400 and I want to buy rims. I found STERN TOURING SPORT
ST2 20. My question is are they fit on my car with out rolling the fenders, and wich size of wheels
should I go with. I am on budget.

I'm looking and searching and i really cant figure out what rim size/ offset/ lip that i want or need. When buying a rim what do you consider first? I'm confused on this offset thing. All i want is a 4 to 5 inch lip in rear and a 3 to a 3.5 inch lip on the fronts with minimum fender mods. I'm willing to roll fronts and shave or roll rears. I don;t want to pull or radius cut anything I want it to look stock as possible with out ruining the body, The fronts i'm not to worried about since i can always buy new fenders. I'm on air, so i would like to ride low and tuck. any advice or threads i may have missed would be appreciated. I want either 19's or 18's don't know what width or offset that would fit my needs? There's to much info involved in finding the right fitment...Also what is all involved in with a low or high disc when it comes to wheel offset?

Nice Stance!! I just seen your pic with the train and i like it i want something similar to that! what fender mods did you do and what size rim do you have. say i did close to your setup with different wheels will it be close to the same fitment?

Im coming from the sc world but I think I could pull this off. On my gs300 I plan on running 20's. In the front im gonna be running 20x9 and in the rear 20x11. Now offset is what getting me! So far im leaning between 13mm offset all the way around and 15mm. Some may call me crazy but im going to be doing it big in the great state of texas.
