Hey CL,
Last week I was trying to decide if I should trade in my LS430 for an ISF. It was a difficult decision but I'm so glad I did it. What a great, fun car. Thank you to everyone who provided input on my last thread, it helped me make my decision. So my question: Please see the picture, are my wheels on right? I'm getting up to speed on the car so please forgive my ignorance.
Thank you,
Tom

I was under the impression that the wheels were specific to their location on the vehicle. Is the right rear wheel different than the left rear wheel? Do the spokes face a specific direction?
I have curb rash on my right rear wheel and was looking to replace the wheel. I know the cost... I went to dinner the first night I had the car and the valet curbed it. I didn’t even notice it until the next morning...
Thank you,
Tom

they look fine. at first glance, it almost looks like the rears are on the wrong side because of the angle. the spokes look like a knife - a blunt side and a cutting side - they should be cutting clockwise when the car is moving forward. they are also labeled on the inside. the wheel in the picture below would be on the drivers side (north american spec). the fatter wheels are on the rear.

Congrats!!! First post with the car and you posted a pic Nice color btw
I'm not 100% sure but on the inside/back of the rim it may say where the rims go. Like LF(left front) RF(right front). For the tires, they are directional. Look for the arrow on the ouside lip of the tire

I guess what you are asking is if the wheels are facing the correct direction? From the picture posted it does look correct however it's almost impossible to tell which wheel is wider. The picture in post #4 is for the left side but again from pictures it hard to tell if it's LF or LR (left front or left rear).
