I have the first gen LS and i know it had dual piston brakes on it and am thinking of getting some new wheels for it. Does anyone know the wheel specs on what will fit and what wont? i heard its tough with those brakes.

only the 2nd gen (95-00) LS400s have the "Big" brakes (4 piston fixed) stock, causing clearance issues.

1st gen cars (89-94) have small brakes that wont cause clearance issues.

search for the wheel fitment thread to get an idea of how wheels fit and look.

www.rimtuck.com is a great resource to see what some people have put on their LS's as well.

I have 18x9.5 +38 F ( slightly sunk) and 18x9.5 +15R (pokes out) RPF1's. For LS400's people usually tend to go with full face style wheels such as the AME Shallen LX, Work Euroline DH, Varianza D3S or other high end wheels Weds Kranze/Schwert wheels. It all depends on your taste though. You will pretty much have to roll/shave/pull fenders and run stretched tires to achieve a low aggressive stance.

Good luck finding some wheels!!

well i guess thats good i dont have to worry the big brakes. For some reason i thought it was the 1st gen that had them. Thanks for the ideas. If anyone has pics they want to post feel free, id love to see more first gen LS wheels
