Default Question about OEM LS600 wheels

I have a few questions about some 19" OEM LS600h wheels. I did read 12 pages of old post but didn't see anything helpful. I'm an IS300 owner, and know nothing about the LS models. So, forgive me for the newbie questions. Long story short, I met a friend of a friend willing to sell his LS600h Neiman Marcus Launch edition wheels. My original hope was to get wheel adapters to make them fit the IS 5x114.3 pattern. With some research I don't think it's gonna be that easy. I searched the web, but can't find specifics on the wheels.

Questions:

1. What's the bolt pattern and offset? I've seen 5x120 and possible ET of 35 or so.

2. Are these wheels rare/desirable? I read ads that said there were only 100 cars made with this package. What's a realistic price?

3. Do these fit other LS models as well? I thought maybe the but not sure.

Here is a link w/ a pic to make sure I'm describing them correctly.

Thanks in advance for the help! I know these types of post get annoying and old.

i forgot the offset already, but yes it's 5x120

i don't know how many 600hl out there with the 19s. 100? you talking about the launch edition ones (seems like so from the link)? i have no idea on price. imho if it's more than 2000, might as well get aftermarket

what do you mean fit the ls? it fit, but it's far from optimal as usual

Thanks for the reply. My biggest question was in regards to the bolt pattern. Are all of the LS models interchangeable? They are 19" black chrome wheels w/ no damage. Do you think they are worth $1200-$1500. I'm sure they can be ordered at the dealership, but otherwise a rare OEM wheel.

All of the current generation LS's OEM wheels should be interchangeable, with 5 x 120 bolt pattern.

Thanks. I was also able to find more info on some of the wheel websites. Only the LS460's & LS600's have the 5x120 bolt pattern. Thanks again for the replies & help. Much Appreciated!

Seller didn't even know bolt pattern is 5 x 120, he answered incorrectly :
Q: i assume bolts pattern is 5x114.3 ?????
Answered on Oct-09-08
A: Hello, yes they are. Fit all LS460's, LS460L's, and LS600H's. They are Factory Lexus wheels. Not aftermarket. Thank you.
