Lexani LSS-10 20" Wheels - Pics
OK, I finally got my Lexani LSS-10s. They are staggard fit 20" wheels, 2.5" lip up front and 4" lip in back. They are machined with painted black accent face and stainless steel lips. They are wrapped in Nitto Invos - 255/35/20 front and 285/30/20 rear. My car is dropped on Eibach Pro kit springs fully settled.
What sucks is that I must be one of the first to roll on the LSS-10. Turns out the back brake caliper clearance should the the same as the LSS-5 but they are not. A vendor said that Lexani stated they where so they were machined to the same specs. So, when I got the wheels mounted the back brake calipers got the he11 scratched out of them. The vendor sent 3mm spacers so I can ride on them while they talk to Lexani. Also I was told that 285 rear shouldn't have any rubbing problems. Well, I have rubbing problems on the outside edge of the wheel well liner.
The vendor who I will not mention at this time, will work it out for me I'm sure. If not you all will be warned. Ill update the post with what happens.
Anyway, here are the pics.

Thanks guys. I really wanted something with more of a luxury look.
What have people done to fix rubbing issues on the wheel well liner?
There was a post where someone said they trimmed it, but the pics are gone.

Has anyone had problem with water getting in the trunk through the fresh air vents after they trimmed the back wheel well liners?

Water can get into the trunk if you do that?! lol
I trimmed the lining and my trunk is completely stripped to the metal. I have no waterspots or any problems like that, so you should be okay.
Now its time for you to get a drop!
