for 89-94, anything with similar size that's 5x4.5 (aka 5x114.3) will fit.

Pretty much ANY rear wheel drive Lexus you can think of will fit, the ES series won't fit, everything else will. SC300/400/430, GS300/400/430, LS400, 430 even the SUV wheels will fit, but will look like sheit. You should also take note that LS460 wheels will not fit as they are a different lug pattern. I went with IS300 wheels from an 01', and refinished them gun metal grey.

lose the attitude, it's a simple mistake that you made, no reason to get snippy.

the reason i said GOOGLE IT is because many brands (specific cars obv) have 5x114.3 wheels. mustangs, 350zs, 300zx, 240sx (later models), crown vics, etc......

+1 PD. To the OP, PureDrifter is an active advocate of using the search button so don't take it personally. He simply just wants you to become better at finding out info on your own so the forums don't get clogged up with threads that could have been answered by a search engine or been previously posted about. If you really really really can't find out info on something then you should post a thread.

Just because he's "an active advocate" doesn't give him the right to be-little people. I'm a 55 year old licenced tech with my own repair shop of 20 years and I find it difficult sometimes responding to some requests on this site because some of the high and mighty may differ with your opinion, or you spelled a word wrong or used the wrong word like "interchangeable".... come on!!. What's wrong with typing a couple of extra words like "no problem Friend, but have you tried the search button or Goggle?" instead of being rude. Aren't we all here to help and learn from each other? I don't think there's any need to be rude, and I don't think I'm alone in thinking this. Hey!! have a nice day....

well its better than, "are you @#$&ing stupid? do you not see the damn search button that waiting for your lazy *** to click?"

SC430 pie plates look pretty good on a lowered 1LS. 04+ LS430 18" Sport wheels or the 3GS 18" 5 spoke wheels look pretty damn good though.

95% of the questions posted in NEW threads, have been answered (and get referred to search).

I have no problem with you posting your "opinion" so long as "opinion" and "fact" remain separate and distinct. I tend to honestly not care so much about opinion as this is a public forum and you have every right (within some constraints) to post your opinions. Rarely will I criticize/correct Opinion. Also, he did not use the wrong word, he misspelled the word he attempted to use. Given the manner in which I corrected him I'm shocked everyone seems to rather just allow misspelling and deal with it themselves. be that as it may, I wont. It was a glaring error, and I have no reason not to (politely) inform him as such.

Facts though, I have no problem correcting or disputing (while presenting evidence in support of my point). If you have a fact you know to be true, with evidence to support it, then why would you hesitate to post it? I'm not irrational, I just have little tolerance for hearsay, claims without evidence/support, and laziness in searching.

so if you feel like listing every 5/114.3 car made in the past 20 years that the OP could use to scavenge wheels off of, instead of referring him to search google where he could likely find a page with a LONG list in <20seconds, feel free.

if you have an issue with that, either deal with it, or PM me. I'm not posting in this thread regarding this matter again.

Caps lock isnt your friend, try harder.

I think this link will help you

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=what+cars+have+...olt+pattern%3F


In general id advise to just stay with stock lexus wheels. but if you cant find any and dont want to order online be sure to check that the brakes on the donor car are equal too or smaller than your stock calipers to ensure you dont have clearance issues.
