Default Lowenhart LD1 20's with tires for sale or trade

I bought a set of 20 inch lowenhart wheels 5 by 114.3 and i guess the offset was wrong on my 98gs300, they are used but in great shape.

I didnt get the center caps in the purchase because the guy had sold them to someone else. this made me think they were fake so i researched them and saw a reciept before i bought.
the wheels have the heart and the L on the back as well as the made in japan weld and stickers

I will try to post some pictures

I am assuming they are worth about 1500 or more because thats around what i paid for them and i thought i got a good deal but let me know.

id be willing to sell or trade for something straight up or something else plus cash for my 98 gs300

2 of the tires are brand new and the other 2 are about 60-70% left in the tread

The offset should be stamped on the back of the wheel. It will have ET in front of a number. Will read like this ET 38 (this equals +38 offset) or whatever the offset is.

i realized that j45 might be different than just 45 i think it means japanese 45 offset thats why they were so close to fitting

1. You can upload the pics to the CL gallery and then link them here.
2. 20 x 8.5 +45 with 245/35/20 tires should fit the 2GS just fine. The only confusion so far as the thread progressed is the bolt pattern. Is it 5 x 114.3 (fits) or 5 x 112 (don't fit)?
3. Are you saying you are selling for $1500? Just making sure since you must post an asking price per the rules.
