Swappable ??
I have a 98 GS4 but am wondering if I can fit a set of 20's off a LS or ES ?? I believe they are the same lug pattern but does anybody know why it would not work ? I am just asking before I make a big mistake. Thanks

Sometimes it will...sometimes it won't. With 20's it is more technical than other sizes.
You need to find out the offset, width and tire size you plan on using for anyone to give you a good guess.

YES.
There is even a difference between an ES and LS. Let alone fitments.
All have slightly different fender and suspension clearance issues, as well as brake caliper issues that you may run into in the front.
When fitting 20 inch wheels and tires onto a car, you only get millimeters of clearance on each side because of the width, low aspect ratio, and limited fitment options. If you want to just wing it, then yeah, it "should" fit. But hey, it is your car.
