20's on LS400

hey guys i have some 20's laying around from one of my previous cars and am in the market for a ls400. the lug patterns are the same and the size is 20x8.5 +35 on all four. will that size fit nicely on an LS or should i trade for some 18's or 19's. oh yeah tire size is 245-35's

15mm spacers will work.  Bring you down to 20x8.5 +20.  That should set it off much nicer.  Trading down...as long as you trade down for something like 9/10 stagger.  Otherwise, as long as your car is low...those wheels will look fine.

cool, i found these too theyre 19x8 +25/+38 and id have the lower offset pair widened 2 inches. 
a better option?

both style are more 'dub' or truck like rims...i don't like either...i would just get some 19's...

even with 25mm spacers, it still won't be enough to make look anywhere near flush...
 
oh, and there is no way your aurora is the same bolt pattern as an LS400...the LS is 5x114.3...your olds is prolly a 5x115

yeah the wheels are 5x114.3 and they fit on the aurora with small spacers

Those wheels you posted the second time are HOT!  They would look great on the LS400...in my opinion.

If you like em, get em.  I would...they are reminiscent of an MAE style wheel.  That pattern is also seen on a lot of VIP cars from back in the day, when the sport was still in it's infnacy.  A lot of the guys on this board are into the new school vip which uses a lot of lip kits and 5 star wheels.  BRING BACK THE FULL FACE!!!!

One more thing, although the second rims you posted are nice...i missed the part where it said you would get them widened.  Just save up for some custom wheels.  You don't have the UCFXX yest, so you might as well wait.

im new so whats that mean?

what kind of look are you going for? the VIP look, or the EXE (i guess chrome/bling) type look? i say go 19's. 20's look great but i think they are just a little too big. 19's i think look perfect or our body style car. oh yeah, what year LS40 do you have?

(fyi  ucf10/11 are 90-94, ucf20 are 95-00 ucf21 are 95-00 with air suspension, ucf30 01-03, ucf31 04-06)

I've got a 91 LS 400. my rim sizes are 19x8.5 (front) and 19x9.5 (rear) and I still needed to put 1 inch spacers all around to make fitment better. I should have originally gotten the same size rims but in a lower offset or 19x9.5 front and 19x10.5 rear to make good fitment without having to utilize spacers.
 
use that for reference.

None of the wheels posted will help you achieve that look no matter what size spacers you place behind them.  Save up for something better.

thats what ill do BUT wont be able to do that until i move back to FL. i guess ill rock the 20's for now and upgrade when i get to FL
