Those wheels don't look like they belong on the LS, I am not just talking about the size, but the design as well ...

I'm mixed on those wheels, and agree there not the best styling accent to the lines of the car. Like the body kit, but man,that has to be an extremely rough ride.

It's not bad, certainly not the worst I've seen.

Wouldn't want to roll over a pebble with them tho', not too much rubber between the rim and the road....

Guess i'll be the only one who says i like it. Not to fond of the design of the rim but 24's dont look that bad. Its like 22's on a 430

The wheels look good but 22's would look better, as for the body kit def not feeling it.

The car looks awesome. 24's work well imo. I know most guys will say the 22's are fine, but why not push the envelope


this car has been around for a while. I will post somepld pics I have of it and the autocouture LS

this car looks good...

The only reason why it doesnt really look right is because it's not slammed..


Dump it all the way and i think this guy can totally pull it off.

keep in mind that he is lowered only 1.5 inches..

Brakes look tiny now and wheels look too big IMO. 22s with a drop is perfect. THis would make a nice show car though.

It looks like a "hot wheel" car!
