It is official........I tried mounting my GS400 5-spoke "Star" wheels on my 2000 LS400 and they will not clear the front brakes. One would need a spacer about 5/8-inch to make it work. Just FYI for anyone using these wheels on their SC and considering doing the LS400 BBK upgrade. The TT calipers are slightly larger, I believe, and thus would not work either.

Are you sure? I have seen this on the GS section and they do not clear TT calipers.

I'm pretty sure because they've been on my car for over 2 years, no spacers needed... they do clear just BARELY!!

I wonder if those wheels have the same clearence as the G-spiders
The G-spiders are the ones that did not clear TT on the GS, just bearly too.

Wheels look good on your car
