I have TSW

I have TSW carltons, not quite so elegant in hyper black a bit aggresive and sporty but full in figure. Matches My Lincoln LS's full figure helps increase the figure actually.

Didnt drop yet but I have a bit of rub with 20"x8.5 and toyo proxes T1R's 245/35r20. Now Im a noobie so dont make a fool if I mess up.
I had a tuff problem finding the correct offset seeing that this is my daily car and cant afford new tires at every rotation.

What model of ls do you have ls400 ucf10/11, ucf20/21, or ucf30/31? You can run semi aggressive wheels in the ls body. The secret is adjusting camber and streching tire.

Knightryder, before you get too excited and order the wheels in that fitment, you should know that Celsior has Flared and Radiused front and rear guards (1-2" out and raised by the same amount), as well as extensive suspension mods.

Getting wheels to the same fitments would look very "different" on a stock-fendered LS

and to 1_vipd_ls, unless the lincoln is a small FWD hatchback, or you are running low (single digits or negative) offsets, you shouldnt have any rubbing issues with 8.5" wide wheels at stock height. If you saw some of our cars at stock height it would blow your mind that wheels which stick out so far dont rub at all... And most of us run at least 2" lowered (sometimes closer to 4" lowered) yet it still doesnt rub

First step would be to roll your fenders. Second step is to take off the 245s and put some skinnier tyres on there... Like 225s or even lower.

With correct toe settings, camber doesnt wear tyres out nearly as fast as everyone thinks, so that is the next step.
