Picked up a 2004 LS430 black on black UL with only 63k mile today. The car also already has the 90k service already completed. Love the car, my dad has a 2003 although his is a base so I knew what I was getting myself into...

Before I came home I already stopped at my buddys house to test fit some iforged wheels he is selling, please see pics, can I get these to fit properly with more camber? The suspension is currently stock, I want to get a Data Controller for the air suspension but obviously need the wheels to tuck in a little better...what will I need to add the required camber?

 

The wheels are 20x9 and 20x10.5 and they need new tires, was thinking 245/35 front and 275/30 rear, currently the wheels have 285/30 rears

 

Would you consider rolling the fenders?

 

yup, I was actually thinking about cutting them

 

Looks like they'll tuck fine once it's lowered.

 

Great, I'm a little more concerned about the front as I'll need to run a 5mm spacer as its hitting the caliper now, so add 5mm to how much it's sticking out

 

Here is the front currently

 

Hell of a find on the car congrats! Front will need a lil work with that spacer but definitely can be done. Have a feeling this one will have fast updates.

 

245/35 will be fat for the front, you'll need a 225/35 more than likely. What are the offsets on the wheels? Make sure you roll the fronts and not cut them, you'll end up eating your tires if you do.

I'm running 20x9+19 and 20x10+29 on my setup with 225/35 and 275/30 in the rear. Rolled front and rear fenders.

 

Haha I am hoping to only drop it and wheels as it's my new daily driver. I am in the process of selling my LX450 because I originally bought that to be my DD but it was too tempting to mod.

What sort of work will be required at the front? as in rolling the fenders or pulling? Preferably not looking to pull, does the front have factory camber adjustment?

 

perfect, the fronts need new tires anyways

 

Wheels are 20x9 with a 38 offset and 20x10. 5 with a 31 offset

 

Yeah definitely get away with a roll in the front/rear. No pulling required.

 

sweet, well the fronts will be 33 with the 5mm spacers

Any idea what the stock wheel stud length is and where I can get longer ones? The lugnuts don't bite enough of the studs as is with the iforged wheels, I don't think they will get any of it with the 5mm spacer.

 

Congrats on the purchase! Both LS' look great and those wheels look good!

I would roll the fenders and drop the front tire down to a 235/35/20. I run wheels with similar sizes and I had to go with a 255/35/20 tire on a 20x10.5 +23 wheel. I'd recommend a 255 or 265 depending on your ride height.
