Default 2003+ LX470 18" wheels on a GX? Will they fit? Anyone try it yet?

Does anyone know if the 18s from the 2003+ LX470 will fit on a GX? I really like the way they look on the LX and I think they would look just as nice on the GX. Anyone try this or just know if they will work?

Hello,

They will not work. If you noticed the GX has 6 lugs and LX has 5 but more stout lugs.

I was even planning to put the tacoma sport runner wheels on my GX before but it has 5 lugs.

Isn't it weird that the LX that is a bigger truck uses a 5 bolt pattern where the GX uses a 6 bolt pattern like a real truck does? I know that the studs are a little bigger on the LX but the strength of the even smaller 6 bolt pattern used on the GX would be superior to the 5 bolt pattern. I bet the new LX comes with a 6 bolt pattern wheel.
