Question 2002 LS430 19" upgrade, what are peoples offset?

Heya peoples,
Ive copied this post i orginially posted in the wheel/tires section, but no help there yet so i thought i would ask the LS peoples here

Im looking at ordering some wheels from Japan, and ive been trying to work out what offsets are just safe for a 2002 LS430.

From Admiration i have the following specs, but they say "fender work". I dont mind a slight roll of the guard lip, but dont want to do much more than that.

From Amistad (fender work):
FRONT 19×9.0J+31 (high disk) REAR 19×10.0J+32

From retailer in Japan:
If you do not hope for the processing of the fender.
The following size is a threshold limit value >

AMISTAD KLAUD 2PS REVERSE
Front : 19" 9.0J +37(LOW) 245/35
Rear : 19" 10.0J +44(SLOW) 275/30


Can anyone help with offset specs they are running please? or recommendations?
Im planning around a 50-60mm drop also.

Thanks in advance,
Pete

Give it a few more days. A number of ppl run aftermarket rims here (myself not included unfortunately).

Those offsets should work just fine with a roll. Also depends what size tires you get too.

I'm running 18x9 +21's all 'round on my '04 LS430 atm and at stock height the rears are half an inch inside the guards at the centre of the arch,and the fronts are almost flush,with the tyre sitting about 10mm outside of the guard.

a +31 offset with the same width on a lowered car would likely need the guards rolled for clearance when driving,but not much else.
