I am pretty sure all lexus wheels are interchangable for the most part. The wheels size, tire size, and even offset may vary though

They should fit, brake clearance is not an issue. Not sure of the offset difference. Usually swapping FWD/RWD wheels to RWD/FWD cars gives it a funny look (will need spacers).

the ES wheels are 7" wide.

they will probably make your GS look limp...

Yeah i figured with only 7" wide it will prob sit pretty ugly!! but I'm only gonna ride on these maybe a few weeks till my new wheels come in, then just have them for spare. I just dont really care for the style that's on it now and I figured if someone is willing to trade for the wheels and some cash why not

actually they probably won't look any different in stance since they have no lip or concavity
