I picked up a set of 20" I-forged Essen's from the Lexus forum this week and am unsure on the fitment on the rears. Offset is about +44 but I think I need another 10mm. I have H&R springs on order to drop it an inch. What do you guys think about the look??

Nice rims but you need a drop if you're going to sport rims that large!!

looks fine, roll your rear fenders or run some more negative camber if it ends up rubbing in the rear. Whats the widths on the wheels and tire sizes? I thought Iforged doesn't release offsets?

If the rears are 9.5" or 10" wide, they will tuck inside the fender perfectly after the car is lowered. I suggest you check out the tire/wheels data base to see what's already been done.

The new sedans don't have lips on the rears so rolling is not an issue. Fronts are 20x8 with 235/35/20 and rears are 20x10 with 275/30/20. These offsets are what I got from I-forged as the recommended offsets for the Lexus they came off of.

I love them!! classy and sporty. CAll me ignorant since I don't know that much about rims but if the rims are 20s, why is there such a big gap when the stock 17s look like a good fit. I would think that the 20s would fill the gap nicely. In any event, your rims are Da Bomd!!

Looks really nice.

You don't need spacers for the rear. The offset is actually a little low.

Ex. Lower offset= more it sticks out of fender

Lower it and add a negative camber to fit in nicely.

it will be fine once you lower it. The Lexus GS offsets are generally a tad more agressive than the G, but they fit just fine.
