Absolutely not, it's all good, you do know that the GS is the older sibling of the IS - they're built off the same platform and share many parts, so swapping rims would be natural . . . I say go for it !!!

I wonder why Lexus has G-Spyder wheels as optional for both IS and GS but the Tourmalines only for GS and ISP Mode only for IS if they are all exchangeable hmmm...

My guess is that the rwd IS is staggered, front rim is 8" wide +45, rear is 8.5" +50, whereas GS is 8" +45 all around. So all IS rims can fit the GS, but not all GS rims will fit the rwd IS (unless it has a staggered setup). Thus I see no reason why ISPs can't be offered on the GS . . .

The stock 5-spoke are one of the best looking rims in the market. I love them and don't plan to change mine. I bet you can find these rims relatively easy since many people do swap their stock rims out.

I said yes because you can never have too much storage space, and you can tell off the Camry owners who might otherwise scoff at your unusable sliding tray for ashes because they have a huge popup cavern there where they can store their knitting materials. At least it's usable now!

Might as well huh? Since I'm going to install VAIS iPod adaptor and do the BT hack at the same time.

ORDERED!!!
