Someone is selling 4 2002 Lexus IS rims that are in good condition, that are under 300 bucks. You think it would go nice on a 2001 v6 golden galant.

double check the wheel specs... i don't konw if they will fit since the IS is RWD and RWD cars tend to have a lower offset than FWD.

you want:
5x114.3 (4.5) PCD bolt pattern
close to +46mm offset (8G OE)
close to 7" wide rim (+- 1")

hmm, just accidently found this pic while lookin through an old post, even though they are bigger and maybe not exactly the same, it might give u a lil idea of how it might look..

they won't fit. try a search, its been tried before. the specs look like they'll fit but something to do with the how the wheel meets up with the car. sorry, my vocabulary is down today lol. but yea i was thinking the same thing when i almost got the IS300 and wanted to play rim tag with the galant lol.
