Default Pic Request: SC430 wheels on 2nd gen GS
I have a 98 Gs300 I have been waiting to buy 20s for in the summer but I just read that the sc430 wheels fit on the gs300 is this true or do they need modification of some sort to fit? Also I havent seen them on a Gs so thats what I'm asking if anyone has pics or has the wheels please post let me know what is involved with it and how it looks. Thanks.

thanks for the quick reply. So they just fit right on thats great. Also do the stock tire size fit and should you or do you use the runflats that come on them? I just didnt know if you were supposed to use runflats on cars that dont come on them.

if you're gonna get SC rims, at least get these.

the pie plates are just wrong. I guess it's just a different cover on same wheel.

If you mean stock tire as in the ones on the SC430, then yes those tires will work on the GS. You can use the runflats or not. It does not matter. The ride will be different, however, since the runflats are stiffer.

for that price you cant beat a good quality lexus wheel thats about what I am finding them for and people say they fit a gs but since it doesnt seem like anyone has them thats either a good or bad thing i guess
