The bolt pattern is not the only question. The LS has large brake calipers (especially in the front) that the wheel must clear.

I just measured the inside and outside diameter of my 18 inch stock rim and it is 19.5 inches in diameter inside and out. I am hoping these 18 RX350 are the same and than they should fit!!! If anyone used these rims please let me know check out this link as these are the rims i a buying,

So I bought the rims from a local person who promised if they don't fit he will refund me or exchange for a diff wheel. Tomorrow I will jack up the front and make sure the wheel goes on without rubbing the caliper, I never thought of that. Thanks guys and I will post my results. i believe they are from a 2010 RX350 like this:

I shoukd have listened to you Tom, you were absolutely correct, they bolt up in the correct bolt pattern but they dont clear the calipers i was just excited bc they were Lexus wheels very clean and cheap. They dont fit bc the calipers are too big. SUCKS FML!!!! I have to drive back and return them. They are so nice im pissed.
I'm not quite sure what size spacers. But I'm guessing between 15-25mm. I'm think the RX wheels are 7 or 7.5 " wide. Even if they did fit, I think they would be sitting sunken inside the fender. The spacers would serve as two benefits for you
1. Clearing the front calipers
2. Pushing the wheels out a bit
