Might go take a look at this SC400. I’m not sure if these wheels are OEM. Unfortunately this is the best pictures of the wheels in the ad, which is pretty vague as it is.

Hmm, interesting. I wonder why the owner put IS300 wheels on an SC400. They do look good on it though.

Probably easy to find and a direct fit. And my standard answer: Because Five Spokes.

Five spoke or no spoke.

You know what 5-spokes would look good on this? The 18" from the LS430 from about 10 years ago. I can't post pics, but those were great wheels on a luxobarge.

Still the lest-sketchy 400 ad on my local CL, and of possibly the cleanest example that’s also within my realistic budget.

Probabl was looking for some newer wheels and if they fit, and look good, and are OEM lexus wheels (OEM Wheels are heavier than most aftermarkets but are stronger and last longer) then hey - bonus!

They’re IS300 wheels. Themanwithsauce helped.

OEMs are also more valuable... I was kind of hoping they weren’t OEM so I could drive the price down lol.

Either way, $4500 is crack pipe. The car is worth no more than $2500, and that’s how my insurance will see it.

Well I bought mine from a sketchy dealer and it worked out great ... I’d take a gander at that one.

It’s also from Bellevue, WA, where a lot of high-class people live. So it could turn out to be a real nice car with bad photos.

Yup, those are the ones. Like the S-Class, there are some cases where 5-spoke is just perfect on a large cruiser.

I believe those are SC430 rims (not a big fan). I'm talking LS430 — the sedan.
