Default LS430 on 2013+ GS standard 17" nine-spoke alloy wheels

That looks fantastic. I managed to locate one new takeoff, looking for three more of those for mine. Looks very European and brings it up to date. The curves also work with the car. I don't like the previous GS wheels on those, it looks like wagon wheels, too straight, but that's excellent.

I always like the 5 spokes SC430 wheels (I used to own SC430). Beside needing spacer in the front and rear, is there any concern if I install the SC 430 wheels since LS is a bigger and heavier car? Can you recommend any brand for spacer?

Default The difference

My 05 has factory 18" wheels, chrome. My tire pressures are as reliable as sunup, no air loss, none nada.

My old 99 GS also had chrome wheels. Back then dealers would have the factory rims chromed at a local plating shop and add a grand or two to the sticker for chrome wheels.
My point? We had constant pressure loss with the dealer chromed wheels on the GS. I finally got the dealer to have the rims redone on their dime. As I recall that did resolve the issue. No peeling or damage visible externally. I think wet air causes issues with the plating internally.
