Yes, they should fit. I'm assuming you're getting the five spoke wheels right?

I was thinking they wouldn't also... but yesterday one of these kind folks corrected me and they will. There is a member on here that just posted the other day that has 430 wheels on a 98-2000 model.

Scroll about halfway down.

In essence wheels specs run similar for the LS's from '95-06 needing the brake caliper clearance. If it is on a LS430, it will fit the 95-00.

Got '04-06 LS430 wheels for my '99 LS400 a few years ago.. Immediate sexy! The tire profile on those 18"s are perfect

(Yes they will definitely fit)

Hi, Billy D!
First, thank you for all the information you have posted over the years.
It has been most helpful, especially to a newbie like me.

Question regarding the 5 and 7 spoke LS430 wheels:
Are the 7-spoke for 17" and the 5-spoke for the 18" tires, or are they for different model years, or just an option offered on the LS430? Or something else?
Inquiring mnds want to know :-)
Have a great day.

"I dont know" it is my beliefs that they went from 16, to 17, and then 18 for different model years... one of the "mods" can probably give you the facts.... and "thanks for the kind words".

Those wheels look best on a black car. Chrome on black is hard to beat. Certain bmw 7 series and Vossen 20 inch wheels are my favorites.

Those 17's are good looking wheels and you get the comfort of a 50mm sidewall.

only 18s offered in the US for the LS430 were 5 spokes iirc.
