Special Wheels for the New LS460?

I'm thinking about purchasing an 08 LS460. I heard that the LS460 needs special offset wheels due to the brake size. is this true? if so, what is the recommended width/offset to make it look hellaflush?

You would need 'Hi-disk' front wheels. The is designed to clear bigger brake calipers. All LS's since '95 have needed them. Has nothing to do with offset.
No idea about recommended offsets for frushness.

The LS460 bolt pattern is not the same as any other Lexus. It is 5x120 which is the same as BMW. Keep that in mind

That's a strange of Lexus? Usually alot of the popular wheels that run center caps have 9 studs (5x114.3+5x120) anyway so that shouldn't be a drama to find a set of new wheels. Also some of the manufactures state whether the clear brembo's so that should be handy for you.
