Not without spacers for the front.

thanks for the info! I'm having such a hard time finding wheels for my 97 LS...I don't want to use spacers, I just want direct bolt-ons

why in gods name would you want those wheels?

10 allen bolts to be removed just to balance a wheel, and they are not very attractive in my opinion either...

LS400.1

I actually like the look of these wheels on a LS400. Any idea how wide a spacer is needed to fit these on the '95-'00 LS?

5-10 mm should be all thats needs, however, I wouldn't recommend spacers on any vehicle... either way, if you do use spacers, the lugs need to thread down far enough for safety... also, keep in mind, very few spacers will retain the hub centric use, therefore you ~might~ get some shaking from the front...

that's it? i thought those calipers, size wise, are similar to the supra tt, meaning bbk fitment? if so, 15mm spacers i say.

oooh, wasn't even thinking that... the 97's were larger calipers, correct, but I didn't think they were Supra big...

15mm spacers won't be safe at all... you won't be able to find bolt on 15mm spacers as 15mm is too narrow to do it right, and 25mm is the narrowest I think I've seen that bolt to the hub, then the wheel bolts to the spacer... either way, I really would never recommend that....

i know they have 20mm and 25mm adaptors, do they have 15mm?

i believe that H&R makes 15mm spacers but not sure if they come with the longer studs you will HAVE to install.

correct...

that sounds like the worst available option though...

would be better off with a bolt on adapter... after the labor of removing and replacing all the studs, it'd be cheaper to buy some nicer aftermarket wheels...

now that I think about it, bolt on adapters are pretty pricey too, so, either way ya go, it's just as cheap to get something nicer...
