2009 LX570 - Wheel & Tyre Upgrade?

[Kruiser Kat]

Got access to back of my rims. They're 20 x 8 1/2" (not 9").
Which number is the offset? "52" with a symbol of some type, or "60 AHS "on my rims?

For starters, congrats on the LX and welcome! Do the AHC mod (free), slap some 33's on the wheel of your choice with proper back spacing and then get it aligned.

We just picked up a new 2019 LX 570 a few weeks back and I put some 275/60's (33x11) on the factory 20's and have absolutely zero rub in any height and under any condition. I did no mods to the liners, wheel wells, or body side molding.

Did you put spacer on?

No spacers.

So 0 offset is a no go for lx570s? I was wanting to put some volk te37 in 18x9.5 zero offset with k02 285/65/18s.

thanks

There’s a low offset thread around. If you want poke you can make it work. The scrub radius minimum offset for 33 is around 45mm.

I’m running zero offset on a 16x8.5 rim right now on my 100 (almost flus) and didn’t realize that there was such a difference between the 100 and 200 series in wheel selection.

This is is precisely what I'm going for but mine came with the 21" wheels... What are your top recommendations for finding the 20" wheels?

I'd look at FB marketplace for someone who took theirs off.
Alternatively I'd think you could swap with a local used car dealer. The 21's add some bling and they may be into that. Esp if you have newer tires and are willing to take what they have.
