I too had to scrap my plans for wheels. Apparently the Niche spokes might hit the brake caliper according to the mfr even with spacers. Now looking for F-Sport wheels which I'll pair with Conti HT
Picked her up a few months ago but just found this forum recently. Here's my very-stock-but-not-for-long LX 600 Premium on the day I picked it up from ceramic, PPF, tints, and a few other things. First time I'm treating myself. Got a surprise and saw a J80 series also getting some work done.
Say what you will about the stock Dunlops but I got lucky: technician found a screw embedded sideways in the tire, but not at the right angle to puncture it! Whew.
Looking great! Do you have any pics at normal height?
Did you also get a matching 22 spare? What is the recommendation when...
Oh interesting. I'd read that Defenders LTX M/S2 were excellent for road noise reduction.
Are the HT's noisy? Any other benefits to the HT's besides wet traction? This is my first Lexus and I'm amazed at how quiet the cabin is.
Why would that a trucky sidewall be a good or bad thing? Thanks...
Yep I saw your posts - super helpful, thank you!
I guess I'm asking - if the 10" width is a must-have, because the mfgr doesn't make a smaller wheel - what would be the best option? 265? 275?
First choice would be a set of Niche Serene 22X10 +30 and one of these Michelin Defenders: 265/50R22...
So after reading through this thread, it sounds like 285/45/22 would work without rubbing for street tires. What about wheels with a 10" width and 30mm offset? Or is 9.5" the max recommendation? That's where I'm confused.
I have AHC
