Any idea what model/year Lex wheel is from?
This is a set of Lexus wheels I just bought. Any idea what model or years this is from? It is a 15" wheel. I'm kind of torn... they are perfect shape, no marks, but all those extra holes = harder to clean. My existing 93 ES300 wheels have a nice look, but are rougher from years of use & brakes dust that seems impossible to clean off.

Those wheels won't fit your ES300. Did you buy 4 of them?

The bolt pattern of the LS400 and 1992+ ES300 is the same. The ES250 has the same bolt pattern as the 1987-1991 Camry, which has a different bolt pattern. Take a look here.
How much did you pay for those ES250 wheels? I might be interested in buying them from you if you can't use them, they will fit on my Camry.

I don't see how, the center bore is smaller. But hey if they work, great!

I had a hub removed hub from my parts car and it fits perfect, so I mounted 2 on the rear.
I realize I have no center caps. will any 15" wheel center cap work, or does it have to be specific to this wheel?

I guess I don't understand how this stuff works, or the specs are wrong that I read. Because the bore size is supposedly smaller on the ES250, which would make the wheel impossible to fit. You can find the center caps on Ebay, search for ES250 center cap. I think the LS400 caps might fit but not sure.

i wonder if the wheel is lug-centric, instead of hub-centric, and the wheel has the same size centre hole?
OR...maybe these were from a SC400? I was looking on ebay and both the ES250 and SC400 seemed to use this same style of directional wheel (as Noma56 posted above). it is unclear if the centre caps might be different diameter.

so I may have LS 400 wheels?
At the end of the day I'm not concerned about which wheel it is....but I want to make sure I get the correct center caps. Maybe I'm missing the boat, but i had the impression there may have been a few models with this same centre cap, but different dimensions.
I guess I'll also need to get the stubbier lugs (I have longer lugs on there now).
