Question guys. Will a older model LS 400's (91-00) Original Factory Wheels fit on a 2002 Lexus LS 430. Just wondering.

Stu

yes, the LS400 wheels will bolt right onto an LS430. However, the LS400 wheels are a sightly narrower wheel ( 7 inches wide ) , with a slightly higher offset ( +50 )

Only 90-94 LS400 wheels will not fit an LS430 - only the 95-00 fit and they are the same size as the standard early LS430 16 wheel -- 7 inches wide.

Here you can see my LS '01 on 16" from LS400 '99.

Fits with no problems. Reason ? I had new winter tires 16" and want to use them.

I like your wheels buddy

Stu

Kansas, is there a way to visually tell the difference between 90-94 LS400 wheels and the 95-00 wheels ? I am trying to find / buy a set that fit my LS430, and I don't want to buy the earlier ones that wont fit.

( often sellers have no idea which model LS their wheels are from. )

Thanks.

Lexus LS (90-94) had smaller brake caliper then LS (95-). I tried to fit wheels of LS 92 to LS 99 - it was not possible to install wheels. I hope it is clear now..

It is easy if you know what the OEM wheels for each LS400 series looks like. The 90-93 LS400 wheels have 14 spokes and are "directional"; the 93-94 standard wheels have 9 spokes; 95-97 standard wheels have 10 spokes, the 97 Coach Edition and 98-00 standard wheels have 5 spokes and the 2000 LS400 Platinum Series wheel is the same 7-spoke wheel that was standard on the 01 LS430.

Whew ... I think I got that right. You might want to look at photos on the Internet or at photos on one of the parts websites to be sure.

If a seller doesn't know which year LS wheels are from then just move on. It's common for sleazy sellers to feign ignorance just to get rid of stuff.

Hey will the wheels from a 2006 LS fit on a 2002 LS?

'95-'06 LS wheels will fit on all the OEM 4 piston front calipers interchangeably. So you are fine.
