Paul Sherman Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 jhawk, what are ya gonna do with the old wheels? Mine are looking a bit sad, and I have no desire to go beyond stock size. Heck, I'm not sure they're original; while they had a Lexus logo on the center caps, they're component style (with a ring of bolts holding the center to the outer rim). I've lost the logo on one cap, completely lost another, the coating is starting to come off the 'spokes', etc.... Yours looked pretty good - let me know if you want to sell them (assuming they'll fit a '93). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agc Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Paul Sherman, I will probably be selling my 2000 LS 400 wheels if you are interested. The tires are Dunlop 5000 Sport with about 4k-5k on them. If you are interested send me a PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razahyde Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 what % tint did u get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhawk1 Posted June 21, 2005 Author Share Posted June 21, 2005 The tint is 20% but the bad news it that I had to take the wheels of because they rubbed the rear tires with people in the back. I guess I am going to have to wait a little longer for wheels that will clear my calipers and that are the correct 35 offset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akewlguy Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Does the rear window in LEXUS's come with a slight tint? I think I am going to get 20 on the back and 35 in the front.. Cops sorta approve of this so they can see you. Hey why your at it don't forget the Xenons.. So the 20" did not work out.. I guess I will have to stick with 17". Your LEXUS looks great man!!

oohryry Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 What you guys think?http://www.sounddomain.com/ride/1603024 ← Very nice. The new rims accent your Lexus perfectly. Perfect size and style. Now what did you do with the original factory rims? Did you sell them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't you just get the raised rear shocks? Wouldn't that alleviate the problem occuring with the rubbing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED. Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 Jhawk, I didnt even realize you had a space at car domain. I have wanted to set up somethign there. Right now I am borrowing space form Jeff Wheeler on my BMW forum. I might open an account there eventuallly just to save Jeff some space. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEGENDICON Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 Yo, whats up Ls400 is looking Tight, if you really want to stick with the 20's did you think about just cutting out the inside of the rear fender, its simple to do and usually solves the rubbing problem. good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the-hedge Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 funny how a new pair of shoes can change your whole outllook. What did you ever end up with?

BlkLexus20 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Looks Good...What size tires you useing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the-hedge Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 There is less road feel increase than i expected. Most noticable at parking lot speeds. On the HiRoad it actually feels better, I think mainly because the Michelin Pilot HX MXV4 is abetter tire than the Toyo. I went from a 225/60/16 to a 245/45/18. I was looking at inflated circumference to fill the well. Tirerack.com is helpful. Also try http://www.dakota-truck.net/ then link to the tire and wheel calculator.

Darrell J Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Hey... I think u did a great job with the lexus.... These cars are kinda tricky when it comes to getting new rims and tires and tint.. Ive seen a few that people screwed up with the wrong rims and stuff.. But yours.. looks great... As far as the rubbing... Youre going to need to get stiffer suspension in the back.. It wont cause a rough ride.. but it will keep them from rubbing... DONT GET RID OF THE RIMS.. GET GET THE SUSPENSION TIGHTENED UP AND PUT THOSE RIMS BACK ON....

stcmharb Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 if its your style then yeah does fit the car nicely should work on some more of the appearance to make it a full package while your at it.. like maybe the tail lights or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
