i think around +40. does the wheel hit to suspension if the offset is bigger? like +50 or so.
+40 would poke too much, these are 12" out back. My goal was to go as wide as possible without having to run stretched and negative camber.

looks good. amazing how lowering and putting some wide wheels makes a plain jane SC300/400 look like a car not to be messed with.

i'll never understand why car makers put such skinny pizza cutters on production cars in the 90s

factory size wheels and tires equated to a much softer and smoother ride. This is exactly what Lexus was all about back in the 90's. Plus, a stock SC300 barely had enough power to need wider wheels or tires any way.

i'll let him tell you that i dont discuss other peoples power numbers. This car turned from all show to all go in the past couple of years so its def not for show. Stretch ****..lol...the rear is a 315 wide tire...not much of a stretch.
