that's disappointing. I was planning on getting them too. But it's kinda hard to believe. I have stock 2007 GS300 17" wheels on my 01 LS and they clear just fine. Oh well...

Mike have you actually tried fitting them? The 06+ GS430 has pretty big brakes (unlike the 2nd gen GS which had smaller 2 piston brakes and whose wheels don't fit).

I remember seeing your blackcherry Ls with the 17"s before. I always thought you had spacers or something because 2 other members informed me (about a year ago) that the 06 gs300 wheels weren't high disk. guess they were misinformed just like me. my bad

it's alright. I didn't use spacers at all and they JUST clear the calipers. Anyway, I sure hope the 18s fit because they are HOT. If I get em anytime soon, I'll let u guys know if they fit ok (which they should)

Back at it again

Alright, surfing eBay and found this http://tinyurl.com/33vwy6 . Would it fit perfectly on the LS430? 18x8 45mm offset? Is the the correct offset or does someone else have a better number?

Thanks.
