To the last two posters.... thanks very much for taking the time to respond!
I am LED to believe.... after contacting the pictured wheels owner, that this rim is
45 offset, and so this would mean that it would be "sticking out" just a tad more than
the original... correct?! Assuming as gareth suggests it is 50 on my existing
rims.
Which brings me to my next point... Tigerfish says 35 to 50, and i think this is where i
get puzzled as this is what i mean by the two different figures, and would i be right in
thinking that this figure would therefore alter depending on model year or car spec, etc?!
lastly... bear with me... the 60.1 bore size? I guess is the size for the centre cap
fitment? Or perhaps more specifically the size required to clear the hub centre etc?!
Thanks again
Trevor.... :D

Steve......
Thanks for offering some insight, and i have to say i saw the comment regarding
the two offsets written as 38/45 on this wheel and tyre forum right here but i have
been unable to locate it... (more than one post had this type of info too, i am sure!?)
One other point i forgot to mention...... am i right in saying that my original rims
are going to be 5 on 114 PCD/ And is this the same thing as the 5 on 114.3 i have seen
mentioned a few times, both on this site and on other tyre and wheel sites? I am guessing
that the point 3 part is just overlooked for ease of writing??
Thanks a lot
Trevor :)

Hi Guys...,
I am new to Lexus ownership having bought a '95 GS300 last weekend!
It is a really nice low milage example but let down by the original alloys
having had a less than perfect refurbish.
Now.... i know the original rims are (correct me if wrong) 7.5x16
and they have 7 spokes but i am at a loss about the offset?! I hope one
of you good people will know this! Also i am a tad puzzled when i have seen
some of you refer to wheel offset with 2 figures,for example 38/45 ?? I would
have thought it can only be one? Sorry if i am being thick
The attached rim pic is a 17x7 and i wonder also if any of you can look at it
and know for sure it is a simple replacement with no issues that is to say
can anyone offer the correct offset for the pictured rim? I will just also say
that i am indeed aware that the new tires will have to be able to offer the same outside
dia. to be "right"! Oh.... and will the original wheel bolts fit or is that more money!?
Thank you all very much in advance and i have to say after a good look around that
it really does seem a great forum and i will look forward to joining in some more!!
