Different bolt pattern.

And if you use a wheel adapter to change the bolt pattern, the wheel stick out too far.

I looked into this extensively before, I really wanted those 19x8 5 spokes from the LS460L Touring

 

Gato is selling his adapters right now! Do it!

 

haha.....it would stick out too far on the front, the rear is perfect though.

Man, those 460's 5 spoke 19s would look perfect on the 430

 

I think it would look nice....but I didn't know the bolt pattern was diff.

 

1 yes and 1 no???

 

How do you know the front stick out too far?? Factory wheels has weak offsets, they might just sit flush? No?

 

I think it would look nice on the ls430, you should check the offset with the adapters.

 

From calculation

Well it stick out too far for what I want. I think it would stick out about as far as your old 20s, which would look weird for OEM wheels.

From my memory, the thinnest adapter I could find was 15mm, the 19 x 8 460's wheels I want have offset of +35mm, and they are 8" wide. So compare to my OEM 18s that is 7.5" wide with a +45mm offset, it would stick out 31.35mm more then the stock 18s. Which was way too much for me, the max I want it to stick out is 15mm.

 

Andy, I calculated.......

The LS460's OEM 19s on 15mm adapter will stick out the exact amount as the 20 x 8.5 +26 wheels you are considering. Which is too much for an OEM wheels, it is ok to go aggressive on an aftermarket wheels, but I think it looks weird to stick an OEM wheel way out there. The answer is 81.95mm from the hub to the face of the wheel.

But these are on the OEM 19s though, the OP was asking about the 460's OEM 18s, I don't know the spec on those.

 

Cool, I don't even know how to caculate!
I use 20mm spacers for my rear stock wheels, flush looks better.

 

Not sure on the specs but nevertheless a good buy?? Even if i cant make them look right with adapters maybe someone will like the look of it on there LS, GS or even IS. Maybe???

 

My 25mm spacers will arrive tomorrow to flush out my OEM 18s

 

In my opinion those 18s are not pretty at all, I don't know many people would want to go thru the trouble of using an adapter to run it on their cars.

The OEM 19s from the LS460 or LS600 might be worth buying, but not these 18s.

 

SoPhilly1, what happen I thought you were buying the LS430 18' replicas from the classifield?
I think those are better than the LS460 18's
