Question: G-Spider wheel replacement
if you use spacers that too thick your lug nuts may only have a few threads to grab and you run the risk of a wheel falling off.
i have always wondered if spacers place any additional stress on the wheel bearing or any other suspension part?
i almost forgot...Those Wheels look AWESOME on your SC430, Well Done!

I wonder too, sure hope it's all good cause I'm instantly in love with the wider stance. For every "anti" argument, there's a "for" argument. I've got the 2003 steering wheel wiggle going over bumpy surfaces (before the spacers, nothing changed w/ them) so front struts are on the way. Everything I did I learned here, so if something goes wrong, it's everyone elses fault!!
They seem to float in and out of stock frequently.

just spent the afternoon working on my top issue I'll post the results on the other thread when I get back to my desk computer
hi, I'm brand new to the club lexus site, and just purchased a 2004 sc430. You're car is awesome looking with these g spider wheels, and i would love to put that same wheel on my car; but when i check fitment, it says they won't work and shows this wheel only fitting 2007-2010 models. Do you know the difference?, or what i would need to modify to make this wheel work? thanks for any help
Will def post some pics... it’s in for a “spa” treatment for a coupla days to detail it and fix a coupla little things and to mount and balance the new wheels. I immediately took it in for a mechanical lookover and timing belt replacement when we bought it, so my wife is eager to get it back. Again, thanks, and this seems like a great resource for a lotta stuff I don’t know about this car.
