Dude,, give the question a little time to simmer. No one wants to give out wrong info.
From what I looked up on the net,, the bolt patern will match up, but the offset is a little on the weak side for the LS, depending on what year Mustang wheels. 05 and up have offsets that range from +35 - +45 mm. The center hub is larger on the Stang @ 70.6 mm so a good spacer or hubcentric ring may be in order to make them work. Used this to look up specs on the Stang,,,http://www.alloywheels.com/fitment.asp?Make=Ford
Lexus specs are 5X114.3 mm, and 60.1mm hub(center bore),,offset is somewhere +40 IIRC. I am not a wheel expert, so am sure some others will chime in.

you could straight bolt them on depending on the year of ls. (Lexus used huge brakes on later models.) BUT ride will change because the wheel will no longer be hub centric. spacers or rings will cure the good shimmies you will have and gaurentee bbk clearance.

Some people just don't get much.
You said "well i got to find a set of stock wheels that will fit str8 bolt on" Why not just get some "stock" wheels from the junkyard so you can paint them,... what,?... black?

This is simple
93' LS400 with stock wheels and 225/60X16 Potenza's. Want to put stock LS450 wheels 235/50X18 with Turanza's. Will the 2" create any problems in handling/alignment or ride ? p.s. And I'm not painting them black.
