Bah, i think this is the 2nd time you caught me slipping this week

With the LS bolt pattern though, it won't fit

Sorry, I forgot to add Japanese auto makers. Lexus is lacking in the stock wheel department, but they are improving. All those german brands get beautiful, sporty wheels.

These will be the first factory 19s from Lexus. Made by (cough cough) BBS

Cant wait to see these on a 2nd Gen GS.

Didn't know those didn't fit.... I was always wondering why no one was running these wheels in a 2GS... Photoshop anyone? I bet they wouldn't look bad.

the weird thing is, there is a local LS400 running on IS300 wheels... I dunno if the owner changed the PCD, but looks weird.

LS400 has even a different PCD than the 114.3? it can't be 5 x 100 can it?

this is confusing... well I guess the 2GS/3GS is pretty good off with a common 5x114.3

just the LS460 has bigger hubs and different lug spacing. also the LX and GX always had bigger hubs/spacing but other than that all lexus have the same hub bore and 5x114.3.
