Default GS rims on LS400...

I'm sure this has been covered but I didn't see a thread....what years of GS400 and GS430 rims would fit (no boring or spacers or rolling etc) on a 98-00 LS400?

There are some 7 spoke GS430 rims in the wheels section that I think would look great, if they fit. I figure the GS and LS have very similar brake/offset setups?

Thanks

LS400 brakes are larger 4 piston compared to smaller 2 piston on the GS. They may fit with a spacer but not sure... LS brakes are definitely larger up front.

Newer GS (06+) may fit.

Cool cool....I think these are from an 06 GS. I guess the offset and actual pattern on the rim will be the key to them clearing the brakes. I guess there is no way to really know w/o trying them out?

post a pic of the rims and we can prolly tell you which GS they came off of.

anything pre 06 wont fit. min 15-20mm spacers will be needed.

Here are some pics from the thread...
Pretty sure this member's SC is a 95.



EDIT: I think these are 17"s (not 18s dammit) off a 2001-2004 GS from a similar thread i found, so maybe they won't work without spacers

Nevermind, found one I like a lot better:

10 spoke 18s from GS430

What do you guys think? They look really nice, but I haven't seen them on a GS, seems to not be the most common rim it came with. I think those would look great on a UCF21, and have no fitment issues.
