Can you run spacers on the stock 17" GS430 wheels?

ichiba spacers should work with the stock wheels
i think the reason why this is asked is because the ichiba spacer nut did not fit behind the supra wheels. therefore youre assking if the nut would fit behind the gs wheels.

I actually have these wheels on my SC and was looking to get spacers also but dont know where to start looking. Thought these pics might give u an idea how it might look.
oh yeah sizes are:

235/40/17
255/45/17

i think a small spacer would make it perfect

I have never been on a forum where so many people get their panties in a twist due to the search function. Mans trying to get opinions, not old irrelevent information. We should all stick together and help eachother out instead of throwing all these hissy fits im seeing on this forums lately. But then again, im a noob, what do it know? Ill let you big boys figure it out.

I'm not feeling the sense of community in this thread

Hope they didn't scare you back to the SC forum OP. Make sure you post pics of your car if and when you get spacers. You'll see the love in here...promise. There shouldn't be any issues running spacers on the stock wheels except...well...you're running stock wheels...with spacers.

I don't mean to get off topic, but what exhaust are you looking at to replace those NurSpec's?
