19x11.5 19x10.5 Work Emitz on LS400?

Just recently bought these Work Emitz off amoneyQ45. My plan was to throw them on my Q but unfortunately I sold it because I started looking into the LS400. So now I got a 1997 LS400 but I was wondering if I could even fit these wheels on this body? What would I need? Would camber and rolling the fenders be enough?

first you'll find that your front calipers are really big and they won't clear the emitz faces without using spacers. q45s can run more aggressive wheels compared to an LS but with some body work you can make these fit. camber can only go so far, and these wheels pretty much guarantee body work on any car they go on. gl!

Thanks for the info . So is it like that on most wheels that you have to run spacers or just emitz in particular?

I'm assuming just the emitz due to the wheel design and the caliper on the LS.
Have you tried mounting them yet?

Will be like like on most low-disk wheels. Those are very dope wheels but as far as fitting them you're gonna need lots of custom fender work and camber. Good luck!

whoa! i forgot about zach's car, but i didn't know those were his specs. looks like those emitz may fit! it's the low disk and caliper clearance that concerns me however. test fit!!!

Fitment on 18s is different from 19s even with the almost same specs

You can always downgrade the front brakes to GS or 1st gen LS brakes

Lol my car got posted in here! You would've definitely needed a radius or to raise the car a bit on 19's. Why not try a slip-on spacers if you're already going this aggressive in the first place?
