Lug Nuts????????
I currenlty own a 1999 GS300...I recently purchased some IS300 wheels...Will this use the same lug nut or are there special lugs for the IS and GS??? My GS lugs fit just fine, but they don't seem to go as far into the IS wheel as on my GS. Thanks.

They don't stick out too far and they are set at 100 ft/lbs...I drove for a while on them and re-checked the torque and the were all fine...I checked at AutoZone and the replacement lug nuts for a 99 GS 300 and a 2003 IS 300 are the same part....I figure they should work just fine....Just don't want to have to get 20 new lugs from the stealer!!! Any other ideas? Thanks.

I have the same occurrence in my ES after installing '03 ES factory rims. The lugs stick out an inch more than before. I have it like this for almost a year now. I believe this is more of a cosmetic issue than functional so I plan to continue leaving it alone.
Torque of wheel lugs for most Lexus models = 76 ft-lbs.
