Does anyone have any feedback or experience about having ES350 Rims, 17in, on a LS430?
I did the research, and the Bolt pattern would fit, but the ES rims are 1/2in narrower. (ES 7in vs. LS 7.5in)
I currently have 20in rims, they are nice, but I need to go a little more conservative for work.

Could there be an issue due to the fact that the LS is a heavier car and needs the 7.5in wide rims?
In advance, thanks for any help.

UPDATE:
I did some research,,,yes the GS Wheels will work, but I ended up getting used 04 LS430 Chrome wheels, and it looks great.
Thanks

The wheel width is not a problem. The offset I am sure is close to the stock size. Disk height will be your concern. Will the front caliber clear. On a 17 inch wheel, probably not. You will have to test fit. 18's can be a concern as well. Search Craigslist for 5x114.

 

Look for the obvious stock LS 01-06 rims as well as the GS rims from I believe 06+, they have large calipers like we do.

 

The rims you have look great, are they BBS LMs ? They don't look like 20" wheels in the picture.

I don't think anyone at work would notice or even care what wheels are on your car.

 

When I got my 04 LS in 2007 a local dealer sold me a set of Blizzaks with wheels he said came off an ES. No problem with clearance for the calipers.

 

^ those are 3rd gen. GS wheels.

OP, I'd suggest IS or GS wheels, "just in case" both are RWD cars, and the ES is fwd, just in case of caliper clearance... Where the other two models have have those wheels on LS' for a while and seen before...

 

Here's how 2008 GS3 rims look on LS. The only negative to me - wheels sit too deep inside the wheel arches, nothing that can't be fixed with some spacers.

 

What you have on there looks great in my opinion, I don't think it's too "bling" or overly flashy.

 

I ended up replacing them.. Got 04 Chrome rims, looks great. Thanks

 

this looks nice

 

Are these 20 inch hyper silver

 

What size tires are on the rims? Im looking at picking up a set tomorrow, they are 225/50/r17, im worried that the rubber may be too wide.

 

A 225/50-17 is not to wide a 215/55-17 or 235/55-17 is closer to factory diameter spec.

 

Greatly appreciated brother
