mike92lex Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 Hey guys, I've recently aquired a 1992 LS400. I love it. Though the stock wheels which came with it are a little outdated in my mind. I want to get some nicer rims and am working with a limited budget. Does anyone know which wheel types, if any, will fit a 92 ls400. I know its a 5 bolt pattern, but that's about as much as I know. I've seen some nice Honda/Ford/Chrysler wheels which are very nice and cheap on ebay, though without knowing what offset/pattern etc, I won't know if they will fit. Aftermarket rims are great, but I find that I can get stock wheel types for a lot less. Any input would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks -Mike 92 LS400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92LS400 Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 Hi Mike, I also am a proud owner of a 92 LS400. I agree -- the stock wheels are outdated. The chrome started to corrode on the inside and outside of mine and I was told to replace them to prevent the loss of tire pressure. I don't know what type of wheels you're looking for but I picked these up at Les Schwab about a year ago for about $100 a piece and have been very happy with them. They are only 15" but they are relatively easy to keep clean and were a huge improvement on the way my car looks, I think. Best of luck!

SRK Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 That is a great looking wheel Elaine! What is the brand and or model number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92LS400 Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 Thanks, SRK! The brand is ADR. The product description is: 296551035 15x6.5 5-100/4.5 ADR TYPE 29 SILVER FWD. I'm not sure what all of it means, but the first part must be the model number. Are you looking for new wheels also? (Does anyone know how to attach pictures so that they show up in the email without having to download them?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 You have to upload the picture to the gallery and link it into the post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BG LEX Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 OH MY GOSH those rims are awesome! Elaine did you read the post by VMF titled : I JUST GOT HIT IN THE BACK! I think you'd find it very interesting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92LS400 Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 Thanks, BG Lex! Yes -- I have been following VMF's post, which is the reason for my "great female driver" remark. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRK Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 Thanks for the info Elaine. By the way, I have been driving for longer than most of the guys on this board have been alive, and the near misses that have nearly killed me over the years have all been caused by males, with one exception. Interesting too that mining companies and others running huge machines prefer female drivers because they tend not to abuse the equipment ( watch what some guys do when they miss a shift - curse the trans and mash the gears anyways) and cost them less in maintenance as a result. And road rage, one of the worst driving offences possible, is committed almost entirely by males. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 And WHY didn't you post in the other thread SRK? LOL I could have used the support, its not every day I (a man) must defend the entire female gender :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRK Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 Sorry Steve - I usually avoid the slag-fests that some threads turn into. And of course I like women too much.... :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 LOL, I think its remained civil and respectful though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92LS400 Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 Steve, I have to agree with SRK. I'm staying out of that debate....altho as a female driver, I really do appreciate the support. SRK, I appreciate your comments too. I have never been in an accident but my husband has been in 2. Both were caused by males. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
