Thinkin about puttin some '04-'06 LS430 5spoke rims on my LS400. Might give it a more modern fresh look. Anybody done this or have pics of it?

thx

 

looks good on 1st and 2nd gen.

 

very common, go search in the wheel thread.

 

yea, wondering the same

 

will 17 and 18 ls430's fit a 978 ls400

 

yes they will fit

 

The one wheel that won't fit up without an adapter is the LS460's. Pretty much any Lexus wheel can be a contender so long as there is brake caliper clearance. That eliminates some IS, GS, ES..etc wheels unless a spacer is used. With the conservative offsets of these factory wheels, it shouldn't be a problem to use them. Depends if you like-don't like using spacers. (Speaking conservatively where fitting up a 25-30mm+ adapter to make an aggressive fitment.)

The wheel thread has plenty:

spacers dont work well, i would suggest adapters. Reason being is due to the ls400 having such short wheel studs....you would need to pound out the old studs and put longer ones in.

 

spacers work fine if you know what you're doing.

stock 2LS calipers require generally no more than 15mm spacers, so you can either use a spacer+extended stud (please don't pound them out with a hammer, you'll destroy the wheel bearings) or a bolt-on adapter.

many oem wheels will fit 2LS brakes w/o spacers, there are a few lists on the forum if you search.

 

Had them on my old LS
