    You think the Lexus IS rims would look nice on a G

    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")

    well what size are you looking for, u can check out my cardomain, i have 17's, and they are 5-spoke. i believe the ones in the pictures are called moda R6's, or someone can correct me if im wrong

    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.
