stuffin' it

What would i have to do to fit wheels of these sizes;
Front: 18x9.5 +18 offset
Rear: 18x11.5 +5 offset

onto a 94 ls400? roll and pull nuff? or would something more drastic be in order? thanks for the help.

Something drastic in the rear would be needed. Overfenders most likely.

No need for over fenders, serious roll and pull, and hella camber.

or if you want to do overfenders.

HAHA...dood are you serious???

You just gave this guy hope to put on an 11.5" wheel, +5 at that.

All i gotta say is...have fun pulling LS fenders.

Everyone needs to remember...Lexus is not a Nissan.

Thank you

Wow I like how I sorta want to tell you that all you need to do to put 12.5", -3mm wheels is a simple fender pull, too. Awwww yeah, go for it!
God bless the internet.

yeah man, i rolled and pulled (a bit) my friends 98 ls... did everything i could think of coming from an autobody background... was only able to roll the lip flat, and pull to clear 19x10 +5 with stock lower arms cambered all the way... i think if you pull anymore you would damage the quarter panel. maybe you could modify the lower arms (extend them a bit) to camber more... i would love to see you try though, no joke...

Hard to fit on a 90-94 ls400 maybe with like -12 degs of camber and some fender work you might be able to get them to fit.

1st Gen LS400 have much smaller wheel wells than 2nd Gen. You are going to have a VERY hard time fitting those, and I'm going to say that without tubbing ... you wont be able to do it. My 19x9.5 + 39 offset with 245/40/19 catch the shoulder of the tire just a tiny bit... 18x11.5 +5 is WAY further out.
