20" TIS
2002 LS V8
02V8Sport July 18th, 2008, 11:31 AM Looks great!! No wonder you rub with those wheels they stick out WAY too far. There is no fix for that.
babbster July 18th, 2008, 11:32 AM looks good, really like those rims. any other future plans for it.
pelphrey July 18th, 2008, 11:34 AM Post pics or be banned.. haha
On a different note car looks awesome!
PatrickSimmons July 18th, 2008, 11:37 AM Nice rims. welcome aboard!
G-RELL July 18th, 2008, 11:58 AM Welcome. looks great. let us know on future plans for it.
HyeLifeLS July 18th, 2008, 12:27 PM looks clean, are you rubbing the rear wheels?
02LS83 July 18th, 2008, 03:28 PM i would really like to get the wingwest lip kit and a new exhaust. The rims dont stick out as far some may thing. the wheels are inside the wheel well. The only issue is back tires when there is a dip in the road. I just have to get inside of the back fender wall rolled in. that should get rid of any rubbing.
TwansLS July 18th, 2008, 05:14 PM nice LS brotherin...
KD00LS July 18th, 2008, 08:50 PM You might be able to get the wheels machined down to add a little more offset, but probably only by +3mm. I'm not sure if it'll accomplish that much. Nice ride.
Dubbed_LS July 19th, 2008, 03:26 PM car looks great!!
imo i like wheels that have some lip. but some reason im loving it.
HyeLifeLS July 19th, 2008, 04:12 PM For the rear not to rub, do this. This is what I cut when I had my 20s and they rubbed the same way. Trim the fender liner a bit and the metal, the lip should be ok.
RollinLS July 20th, 2008, 09:03 AM Nice looking ride. Like the rim choice.:)

02LS83 July 21st, 2008, 09:19 AM thanks for the idea... i also looking at getting and exhaust real soon. Can anyone recommend a good exhaust system? i have a V8 so i want to hear a nice rumble.

I got the magnaflow cat-back exhaust system and I love it! Nice HP gain and it sounds sweet! Here is an old vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCdOIlp-zo4
lseguy July 21st, 2008, 03:31 PM I hope that cutting doesn't introduce rust where the actual slicing occurs. If it were me (well, if it were me, I wouldnt do 20's, but all that aside), I'd probably put some sort of rust protectant over the actual bare metal. Good luck with everything. Car looks good
