Default What is the offset and lug pattern?

Anyone know the offset and lug pattern for a 97 ES300. I am interested in purchasing rims that have an offset of 50mm and a bolt pattern of 5 x 114.3. They are 18" with a 8"width. Anyone know if these will fit?

Thanks

5x114.3mm or 5x4.5". 50mm offset on a 18x8 rim WILL NOT fit. Try +38 to +43 only. +45 will work as well.

I found rims with a 5x114.3 and 48mm on the 18x8 that fit. Why won't the 50mm fit, it's only 2mm.. lol

what I'm trying to do is get a set of SC430 Wheels. I have seen Frankwhite with these rims on his ES300. How did he get them to fit if the offset is all wrong? I'm so pissed they don't fit, I can get a set of brand new SC430 18" for $419.oo, life sucks.
