Default Wheels - Would these Fit?

Im looking at changing the wheels on my 430, and noticed a nice set of SC430 alloys on ebay, Im pritty sure they will fit the LS, but wanted to double check.


These are the wheels in question.

You'll need a spacer to clear the front brakes with those wheels.

I think most owners of older SCs try to ditch those dinner plates ASAP.

caddyowner is right. Those wheels are easy to find for sale because no one likes them.
If you like them, you should be able to buy them cheap, as not too may people want them.

In all fairness, they are actually better looking than a LOT of new, skinny mulit-spoke wheels being sold. The "full face" wheel has seemed to disappeared, which is too bad.
