Hi ALl,

Oh my God... will any of you guys coin-up for proper wheels? At this rate, why bother to change wheels at all?

I am disgusted...

Aren't RX300 rims and GS400 rims almost the same??? I think its a valid question. I have always wondered if RX300 rims work on SC, not that I would put those on my car . I just took a look at RX300 rim size... stock rubber is 225/70-16 so ya it will probably work w/ your stock 16" rubber... 225/55-16. Almost sure its the same bolt pattern. But... now that I see they are 16s not 17s... I would say, just go find used GS400 rims w/ rubber... should be pretty cost effective. I wouldn't bother w/ the RX300 rims unless they were given to me.

To tell you the truth, while browsing e*ay the other day, I found some OEM wheels, I looked at the pics and they looked nice, cool five spoke design and stuff.. didnt realize it at the moment but then found out they were from a 2002 rx300.. I would say it would be a nice upgrade for a 92-94 or so cars with those ugly 10 spoke wheels, not to mention that you can get a nice set for very cheap... the only problem with them is the same we have with the IS wheels: they will fit but they are too skinny for an SC.
