20s is the only way to go on an SC. Anything below looks too small

i guess whatever floats your boat, if you dont want to be low go with 20s....see how opinionated something like this can get? your car looks nice but your statement is way too bold

As much as i agree that his statement is bold. I do have to side with him. 20s on sc just fits nicely. Im dropped on coils and 20s and havnt seen a cleaner car on 20s around me yet.

nobody is arguing that point...your car is also very clean. Of course you going to side with him you have 20s on your car...just dont say its the only way to go...18/19/20s look good on sc if done properly. 18s go the lowest...19s in between 18s and 20s on how low you can get.

What's wrong with midget strippers? At least I'm not looking for Dolphins....

This is what the lowering will look like once I get the right offsets (and the wheels I'm getting for the SC are not Aeros)...gotta love coilovers.

What is that body kit you are rolling...?

here a pic of mine on 20's... definitely need a kit to complete the look. but i think they look pretty damn good. I think the sc looks good with any size rim,,, some ppl on here riding clean as sh* T with factory 16's from other lexus' and there car looks hard to me... i chose 20's to be a little different

What tire width should I consider on a lowered SC400 with rolled fenders without rubbing? Would 30's work or should I go with 25's?
Wheels specs are:
Rears 20x9.5 ET +38
Fronts 20x8.5 ET +42
