Will They Fit And Yes I Have Searched But Always Find The Wrong Thing

[Ghosty]

hi guys done it again made mistake of late night ebaying putting in bids that i know i will most likely loose. yeh and i accidently won a set of gs alloys off a gs 300 gen 3 (06+). I have a 2001 gs 430 with the 17 oem alloys on at the moment that i kindy found thanks to other lexus owner to replace my set that are in need of major refurb. so basically i am stuck in limbo with 9 17 inch oem alloys from gen 2 lexus and 4 gen 3 18 inch wheels. They are the 18 inch alloys i think of the awd se model 8jx8 will they fit the gs without any problems as the sport gs came with 18 inch wheels i am hoping they will fit. also does anyone know the size of tyre the 18 inch alloy takes for an 06 gs.

so yeh this is a request for information on will they fit and should i keep my old alloys with new tyres or use these new 18 inch 06 wheels and have to buy new tyres for around 400 when already spent that last year.

i think that maybe my wife should stop me going on eBay, on the plus side on eBay picked up rear brake fitting kit for around 10 pounds from us when they are 70+ from lexus direct so handy shopping around

finally got my 18 gs alloys today. I was wrong were not off 2006 car was off a 2009 GS so even better look lush. But due to my want to upgrade my calipers to 4 pot supra brakes have decided to relist on back on eBay and put money towards new brakes as wife says i cant have both. Fitted my Gs like a dream look so much better than the GS sport wheels for our gen 2 cars.

I sold a set of Sumitomo 4 pot calipers off my 1997 Celsior, don't know if they were standard on imports or the same type fitted to the Supra.

can give you the eBay link sorry if that breaks any forum rules or anything not sure how else to post the pictures. are nice wheels only a few marks wouldnt say they need full refurb just one those kits you can buy on eBay or someone that knows what they are doing. only thing i didnt realise was how expensive postage was for alloy wheels so have put courier i found one there but thought its best as they finish thursday and i am off just to deliver in the wifes car due to that lovely 60MPG compared to my 16MPG on the 430. got to love wifes sometimes well i brought her the car so i dont know if that counts, see i was looking ahead for moments like these
