Default '98-"00 wheels on '97 LS 400

Hello Everyone. I'm wanting the 5-point star wheels of the LS 400 1998-2000. My car is the 1997 LS 400 and it seems my car cannot mount the newer wheels I want. Is there a way I can go up to size 17 wheels (from size 16) or possibly get an adapter to get these wheels for the car? Thanks

Any of the 95-06 factory LS wheels will fit.

17s and 18s from the LS430 will also fit without issue. LS460 wheels will not work due to a different bolt pattern.

There is a list of confirmed fitting OEM wheels int he FAQ.

Hi Lexus friends. Thanks so much for your quick response. Good to know I can go ahead and get the wheels I would like, and not worry about the notice that these wheels are only for this year LS 400. I feel so much better. I've had my car since 2005. I often think about getting rid of it, and using public transit or one of the Uber, Lyft, Sidecar services. My '97 LS 400 had 117,000 miles. Maybe I will sink $2000 in it and keep it another 4 years or so... Thanks again for your answers

yes they would fit, they are factory on the 97ls400 coach edition.

IMO i think the 16inch rims on the LS is the sweet spot size for a luxury soft ride.
