Check out this pic. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...All&sort=Brand
According to Tirerack this wheel fits Gen I LS400 but it doesn't fit 98-00 LS. But I just wondered why that is the case.
The specs are as follows:
Size: 17x7.5
Offset: 42mm
Backspacing: 5.86"
Bolt Pattern: 5-114
any idea why it doesn't fit?

sorry, when i responded i was on my iphone and didnt count the number of spokes? or whatever youd call them. mine have fewer, but are still a 5-bolt pattern and are identical in all other aspects. pics here. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls4...er-w-pics.html

I guess I need to find out what kind of spacers I need to clear the big brake calipers. Tire rack don't like to recommend spacers. Any idea? Thanks in advance for your answer / thoughts.

generally, you'd need a 15mm spacer to clear. just buy a set of wheels that fit.
