Default Rim recommendation

Hi All,

my sc430 is on bags and with some nice rims and stretched tires but i need a second pair of wheels. Not looking to spend too much money so i'm interested in stock lexus wheels, something easy and comfortable. Was wondering if you guys can help me out, other than the stock sc430 rims, what other lexus rims would fit? I wouldn't mind the stock sc430 rims but i currently cannot find them second hand in my local craigslist. any ideas?

I think Gs, Is Es & Sc are the same.....but the Es is a front wheel drive, so the offset will be really high.......I definitely know the newer Ls is different, but you might try the Ls430

Try these guys out. I’ve bought a lot of different refurbished oem rims from them over the years. They have many real original equipment Lexus rims to select from. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lexus-IS250...xa6a2M&vxp=mtr

Hey Tex,

Can you tell me if the 19 inch LS460 rims are the ones you are talking about? There is a set here in AZ I was thinking of buying, until I saw your post

Thanks. I know they were LS460 wheels, my real question was whether they would fit the SC430.

It turns out they won't. The LS460 has a 120 Bolt Pattern :-(
