Default Wheel size specs for the new GS???

Can anyone let me know the exact wheel size specs for the new GS? Wheel size, offset, etc. for both front and rear.

I just got a new GS430 and am about to sell my '03 330i. I had after-market wheels on my 330i. They were Neez Eurocross (Japanese brand and arguably the lightest wheels available). Fronts were 8.5J-18 5H/120 (72.5φ) +40 and rears were 9.0J-18 5H/120 (72.5φ) +45. Tires were Yokohama AVS Pro, 225 40ZR 18 fronts and 245 35ZR 18 rears.

I will sell my 330i with the stock wheels and am about to sell the Neez wheels as well. However, if they fit on the GS then obviously I will keep them (paid 7K for them). Let me know the exact size and whether I can use these wheels for the new GS.

The bolt pattern of Lexus wheels is different from that of BMW.

Lexus bolt pattern is 5 X 114.3, BMW I believe is 5 x 120. So the wheels on your 330i will not fit the new GS.
