Depends on the wheel style. Do oyu have a wheel in mind?
I think the sweet spot on the 430 is 20's, the 460, 22's would look nice..

Honestly, I'd rather go 20x9 and 20x10.5 with aggressive offsets than 22's.You can always have a custom set done in 22" but the car looks too tall, even when lowered.

I'm leaning towards the 20s . . . I see too many cars here that have 22s (or bigger from what it looks like) and it just doesn't do the car any justice . . . unless you plan on going muddin' with 'em

Not too bad if you can run aggressive offets,staggered and lower the car.I might try a set of wheels for the 300c once I ever get my ls.

lol I am all about to each his own, I think it all depends on the wheel. I dont think any late model sedan would look good with 22" pep boy specials, or your $1000 tire and wheel combo on ebay.

With the correct wheel tho, I think 22's would def look nice on a ls430. I think the whole "DUB" look while it does have to do with the size, I think the look and style of the wheel also have a determining factor on how much "Dub" factor the wheel gives off.

Like I would not go with lexanis or some of those bling looking wheels, but a nice classy 3 piece would definately not take away from the car. I would say tho it is not going to be cheap. Ill try to find some pics.

I think 22s look ridiculous on an LS, plus harsh ride, expense, increased risk of flats and on and on. But, it's your $$$
