Size of wheels?

Anybody know the size/offsets on these wheels off of Al's 07 Lexus GS350? and what was done to make them fit? Thanks for the assistance...wondering if the same amount of work would be necessary on a 2006 Infiniti M45? Or would these same offsets even fit? Anybody with knowledge on this?

I know Smitty got the same wheels, but not sure on his specs and Al's?

Anything can fit... just got to know how much bodywork you are willing to do. Most guys now are just buying whatever big wheel they think will work and have the body worked on to match.

id argue that most guys are buying whatever big wheels they think will work and then slapping them on with no regard for how they actually fit. theres a lot of info on here on how to measure for fitment.

Smitty is running 20×10 -15 20×11 -16

But I think his fenders are pretty aggressive....

I keep hearing people not caring about anything except lip sizes so that is where I see people just getting whatever big rim they can find/rebuild. I've talk to Ralph Wright about people rebuilding and some just ask for some crazy sizing and not caring how it fits because they say "they'll make it fit". Of course there is limitations like a civic wouldn't buy a 20x12 -16 unless they are after that look. I can see where you are coming from since there are those people who will take the time and think things through but from the pics and examples that are mentioned it's still the bodywork at the end to get that kind of fitment...

The specs on the white GS is 20x9 +0, 20x11 -8. As for how it fits on a Y50, no idea.
