2nd Gen Wheel gurus weigh in
I have a 98 gs300 and want a basically stock look with no rubbing issues. DF210 springs with 18 x 8 or 18 x 8.5 and a 245/40 18 all around. What offsets would acheive this look ?
Does a lip vs lipless wheel have an effect on what offset would work?
I notice that a stock gs430 18" has a 45mm offset and its a lipless wheel, if i found a wheel with a lip IE. stern would i need to compensate for the lip via the offset to make sure the wheels look stock in relation to staying under the fenders and not rub?
thanks

neo > im looking for fairly cheap wheels and have seemed to find 8 x 18 or 8.5 x 18 by stern and a few others i wasn't thinking of a staggered set just wondered what the offsets should be for either an 8 or 8.5?
neme > most of the cheap stuff seems to be lips of different amounts which i wasn't sure would change the offset from a stock gs430 wheel... which has no lip i like the stock gs430 five spoke but they are pricey and hard to find
