dayum the more I see the 13 ls kitted the more I like em, especially white! that color is clean and you can contrast the look with dark wheels or light one.

I know that they go with 21's because they want the car to sit a bit lower but they are small for a car of this size. Doesnt look proportional. Also black wheels have no business on a white LS. Its an old mans car not a track car. Just my 2 cents

Almost every wheel in Japan on a LS460/600 are 21s. I rarely see 22s on cars in Japan. Major reason is probably the wheel makers in Japan just don't make them.

I actually think that these wheels might be 20s. IIRC, I Prodrive only makes up to 20" wheels.

Brian,

Is there a way to confirm these are 20"? If so, I might go down to 20" on the next set-up.

Look nice I want one but I'll wait till the market comes with used one. I was gonna get the 08s but I'll wait for these prices on the used market.

Lemme see if I can confirm that with them - I have a few friends still in Japan for the TAS/Osaka shows.
