I need someone who has put 18" rims on a 98+ GS. I have a 2001 GS430 with the OEM 17" Rims. I want a similar look and decided on the MODA R6 18x8 fronts and 18x9 rears. I contemplated 19" wheels but decided the didn't like the ride quality and handling. ( rode in my friends 19" setup - it looks great but Ugh on the ride). So anyways. I am placing 265x35x18 on the rears and 245x40x18 on the fronts. What offset would give me the best flush to the wheel wells? I was told +38 on the fronts and +45 on the rears. Does anyone have a better and proven opinion?

Thanks,

GS_MAN

An 18x9 will not be flush with the rear wheel well.

The ofset sounds ok, but I would have to check it to be sure.
