Question Will SC430 stock wheels fit a 95 LS400?? Clear calipers??

I currently have 20x8.5s and I would like to go down to the the 18's from the sc430. I am just not sure if they will clear the calipers on a 95 LS400. Does anyone have these rims on a 95??? I just wanna make sure before i buy them. I am going to be getting coilovers and want to be able to lower the car and with the 20's I have they are a little to "Blingin" for my new look.

Thanks alot guys,

Josh

How can I tell are there markings on the wheels? I am buying frm a guy in Kentucky so I would have to be able to tell him how to find out what offset they are.

I did a search and it looks like this is a big negative because of the larger brake calipers.

Fairly certain that they do not fit on a 2nd Generation LS. So no go on your 95 model.

No prob. Thanks for the help. With out this site I would have a set of rims that I would have to sell to "hopefully" get my money back. Thank you very much guys!


Saved me a hassle.
