Digging this wheel set up. What made you choose 21"s over 20"s and 22"s? I'm looking at going up to 20"s to maintain the comfort of my ride since I have 19"s currently and like the idea of 21"s since 22"s seem a bit too big but I heard the selection for tires in that size is hard to come by. Hope you're happy with the result, the car looks sick!

Thanks for taking notice of the system. It takes someone that is really into audio to understand this system and even recognize these products.

Thank you much guys. This has been a long process of work and even longer one to plan out and get working. I'm starting to work on the headunit portion of it now, I may be wrong but I do believe that I may be the first to replace the stock stereo with an aftermarket unit if I pull this off.

I originally bought a set of 22's but the wheels had a few issues so I had to send them back. I would've gone that route if they worked out but now I'm kinda glad I went with 21's. I like my car LOW and not bagged so that creates a problem when driving lol. I want my car to sit a few more inches lower than it is now and still be static. With the 21's I'm pushing the clearance up front. I can't go much lower without fully rubbing. 20's would let me get a good amount lower but they do look a little small on the LS and you'd still have to run a low profile tire. Problem with that is the lower profile 20 inch tires have a low load rating and technically wouldn't be to safe on a heavy LS

Someday I might have to consider shipping my car to Hilo and have you work some magic

Great plan! The car looks low enough to me and I can only guess the potholes in Hilo can be a snithc. What offsets and tires are you running, that set up has got me thinking 21's are the perfect compromise. Both of my friends with 21's on their Teslas say they don't ride too harsh.

fronts are 9.5 +29 and rear is 10.5 +31. I got a really good deal on 255/35/21 so I ended up just running those front and rear. The ride is actually very nice. I was honestly kinda shocked at how good it rides even with my shocks set full stiff. I'd say 21's is the way to go, especially if you daily the car like I do
