Looking for some info on these wheels as far as make, construction, etc. Appears to be a true 2 piece but I need to aquire a key for the center caps to check markings. Not really of any use to me but i know some guys that might pay a little money for something decent in these sizes to help me fund my real wheels.

That is an aftermarket wheel all day long. Dealer never offered this style wheel for the 92 period.

dealer option wheels are generally aftermarket, but what i am gathering is it must not be a common set. the car did leave the showroom floor with these wheels.

Well,, looks like whomever the previous owner was kept the stock wheel size 205/65/15. The center cap is a stick on emblem, similar to what I have as well (see pics). Although the car may have left the showroom with these wheels, it def is not a factory installed/optioned wheel. It may have been a dealer install, car may have been traded in with these wheels and the dealer chose to leave them on, etc. Since it seems like you said that you didn't a lock for the center cap, and you can't get the wheels off right now, only other thing I can suggest is to get the car up in the air and spin the wheel to look for the markings/specs. The only wheels offered on the LS in 92 were the ones pictured below, in either alloy or chrome.

The wheels you pictured as a dealer option, apear to be a knock off of a BBS style wheel. There are many companies which made copies of that style wheel so without seeing the markings on the inner side of the wheel, really is no way to tell just by looking at it. As for the center caps, if you look closely at my wheels, you will see the same similar design. I just enjoy making people think, especially those who really don't know, that my wheels were a factory option. LOL!!

maybe it was a westside lexus thing(Houston)

There is a LS400 on my street with the same wheel. I'll snap a photo tomorrow.

Wasn't that an option for the SC300/400??

still not sure, but i did find the key (2 in fact) in the tool kit. duh.

back of the center ring is stamped "made in thailand" so nothing too special unfortunately.

You are gonna have to take the entire wheel off and look for markings on the rim itself.
