The IS350 wheels, or the IS300 wheels?
I know someone had some IS350 wheels on their GS, we will see if they chime in, but if you wanted the IS300 wheels, go with the GS4xx wheels. They are 8 inches wide compared to 7 inches on the IS.
Oh yeah..

I drool on the top of the line wheels available for the GS430 or the LS460... those wheels would look very good on a slammed 1st gen with or without a kit.

thanks for that picture man, it totally boosts my confidence, those are the exact wheels i ordered, except mine are CHROME , they look great on your car, did you have to do any camber adjustments, or any other mods to make them fit so nice?

If you like it, then I guess thats what really matters, but to me, Ive never like the style of those rims, or any other rims that have huge centers like that. I like skinny, not real skinny, but no more than 2 inch spokes, and def no huge centers like that. Its just, it doesnt flow very well.

I want to see IS350 wheels on a 1st gen GS also. I think they would look sick, its too bad they dont come in 18x9.5

Sorry, I just saw this post.

There was no adjustment necessary, I do have RS-R springs on the car, give it a 1.4" drop all around.

Edit: Just another pic to help with the confidence.

Guys, I think these are newer LS400 wheels on my 1st gen. They are 17's.

Tell me what you think.
