20.9 front and 20x10 rear, I believe these are the biggest for both LS and GS. Although recently I have seen a 10x5 on the rear of a SC.

21's will fit too...I've seen it done. IMO a staggered 20" set up like CELSIOR GOD said looks best lowered with some coilovers!

Guys,

I was referring to the LS430 as far as 21's. I'm with CELSIOR GOD...I don't think 21's will fit the 95-97 LS400's.

JG- I'm pretty sure the LS430 I saw was not dropped (there was still a little gap in the wheel wells). So, I think you can drop it a little with 21's.

21's are REALLY pushing it...if you can afford to buy 21's along with tires then you should be asking if they fit on a LS430 ONLY...you know what I mean?

But you really think you need 21's, call up Sprewell (www.sprewellracing.com for the number) and ask them about it. They've done 21's on various cars...
