LS 460 9 spoke wheels on a 98?
A local tire shop has new take offs from a 2007 LS 460. Tires still have the nipples on them (Touranza 235 50 18) Been sitting for a while, and is willing to deal. Tire calculators indicate the diameter is very close to the stock 225 60 16's currently on the car. I cant find another 2nd gen 400 with these wheels to see how they'd look, and the dealer can't tell me if they'd fit. Anyone had any experience with this combination? Any pics?

Here is a previous thread where someone asked the same question and was told why LS460 wheels don't fit an LS400/430: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls4...0-fitment.html

After Kansas pointed out the different bolt pattern, I went to ebay to see what was available. I really like the look of the 460 wheels, and saw some similar wheels that fit the RX/Highlander models. Apparently, they have been redrilled from 120mm to 114.3. (18x7.5, 32mm offset). Is this the mod it takes to make them fit?

Ichiba has a bolt pattern conversion kit - http://www.ichibausa.com/icbmwwhadco5.html
Only 15mm thick too so it should still fit. Might actually need a bigger spacer to make it flush.

Thanks for the info guys. Sounds like my options are adapter plates (stud to stud conversion), or redrilling and adding spacers. Is there a supplier selling adapter plates for this application? Does anyone know the offset for the 98 ls wheels?
