M35x fitment question.

I have a chance to get a set of used trafficstars from another member here and was wondering if the fitment would work for my car. They were from a lexus ls430.

20*9 +30 front and 20*11 +35 rear

I have a 2006 m35x. I would like them tucked to as flush as possible without having to do bodywork or pull the fenders. This is my daily driver.

Any help would be greatly appeeciated.

Pete.

Ok I think the OEM numbers are 8" wide wheels at 50mm offset... so with those numbers...

Your new wheels in the front will sit a little over 1" towards the outside. With what I know about our cars that'll be almost perfect, but you might have to at least roll the fenders.

However, the rears will sit about 2" farther out but you will have 23mm less inner clearance... so you have to measure the distance from the wheel to the calipers & possibly to any suspension component and make sure they wont get in the way, and you will definitely hv to do a slight pull of the fenders.


Here's the offset calculator...

Damn. I'll have to get that air off you then. Lol. I might get the wheels. I got to measure up when I get home from vacation next week. I really don't want to pull the fenders though. We will see.

Well, if you dont want to do any pulling you'll have to measure very thoroughly and possibly buy NEW wheels at those specs... but u might find used stuff with the right specs, it's not impossible... also, maybe just get some wimpy offsets & use spacers...
