Default Sold my L-Tuned GS430, picked up and LS460

Just recently got rid of my 2001 L-Tuned GS430 and picked up this '07 LS460. Definitely one of the best car decisions I've ever made. Rides like a dream!

The 460 is extremely smooth and quiet. What a beauty you have. So enjoy your LS. Congrats!

For OEM, I love those wheels!
Wish I had them personally (for OEM route).
Those or the telios wheels!

I went from a 96 GS to a 06 GS to a 07 LS finally to a 08 LS. Could not agree more.
I also have a 997,Cayenne, and a TL SH_awd and drive the LS a lot more than the others combined.
However for longer distance touring my now sold loaded 07 Jaguar XK made you feel better when you got out than before you got in! IMHO

I love the color. It's very forgiving when waxing and not showing dirt for a long time after washes. The contrast between chrome and black really pops as well.

I have the Telios wheels. They are certainly nice. Between those and the 5 spokes, I think I would prefer the 5's.

I must be the only person on this forum who thinks the 18" OEM wheels are fine.

ETA: Perhaps it's brcause I've seen similar 5-spoke designs around a lot with other brands (Audi, for one), so the design doesn't pop out for me.

Oh no not at all!
I like the 5 spoke design as well!
Hey...id almost tke any of the OEM wheel designs over what I currently have.
These wheels came with the car when I purchased it, and the only way I can tell what the OEM wheels were, is by looking at the spare, and they were the traditional (if there is such a thing) OEM LS wheel, silver in color, multi-spoke patter. Heck, id take those too!
