k5chevyblazer Posted April 17, 2005 Posted April 17, 2005 I want to upgrade the wimpy 16" rims on my RX300. I'd like to see some pictures of different RX's with either 18" or 20"s on them. I am leaning towards the 18"s because I think the 20"s might be to big. If anyone has any pictures that would be awesome, you can either post here or email me at k5chevyblazer@tdo-mail.org thanks
k5chevyblazer Posted April 18, 2005 Author Posted April 18, 2005 20" inch and slammed ← the black one looks like a rx330? or am I missing something? :chairshot:

pushatam Posted April 19, 2005 Posted April 19, 2005 is that your car tunedrx300? if so, that car is really sweet. how much were rims and what kind of drop did you do?
TunedRX300 Posted April 19, 2005 Posted April 19, 2005 No, but I am getting 20 inch chrome or silver rims. Pics are from a Japanese site and I believe you need coilovers to get more than 1.5 inches lowered. However, Teins has coilover for 2WD already for about $1000.

stiksandstones Posted April 20, 2005 Posted April 20, 2005 interesting, we put 18" CSC wheels on my wifes 99' rx300 and rear wheels use spacers, front do not. Front wheels rub inside of wheel well when turned all the way....rides better though but I think it jacks with the odometer.
strmrdr23 Posted April 21, 2005 Posted April 21, 2005 i'm running 245/40/20, i think...michelin pilot sport. handling is great as is the performance in wet conditions...i live in seattle so wet conditions is the norm...i'm not sure about in dry conditions...still waiting for some ;) j/k...it's mud and snow rated but i'm not gonna take my chances with them sport tires, ya dig? road noise is quite a bit higher tho...i'm prolly gonna try the yokohamas when it's time to get new tires...hope that helps! here's my joint on 20" lsportline model IV. http://www.cardomain.com/id/strmrdr426 ← what size tires are you running? hows the ride on 20"s? road noise? ←
Benjamin Tang Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 what is the correct tire size if going 18" on the rx300?
k5chevyblazer Posted June 16, 2005 Author Posted June 16, 2005 what is the correct tire size if going 18" on the rx300? ← I was going to run a stock RX330 size 235/55 R18
Benjamin Tang Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 according to what i'm being told by others and what i could find on the tirerack.com website the rx300 18" sizing is 255/15/18... will that be trouble?
