i had a set of mesh 19's on one of my old cars and they looked good as 19's. bmw's have been coming with mesh 18's for years and they look good on them.

Anyone ever put IS350 rims on an LS430? Was thinking these may look decent...

Sorry had to bring this post back to life but I'm looking in getting some new tires for these crappy after market 18's that came with the car but since i've lowered the car i'm having rubbing problems and the inner side walls are gone wires sticking out so it's time for a new set.... I was running a 245/45/18 tires i was thinking of going with a smaller set with a slight stretch any suggestions on a size with minimal rubbing?? I was thinking a 235/40/18 tire.

I have to get back to you on that I'm not 100% sure of it, The wheels are at my cousins house i'm thinking the standard 40+ offset they barely clear the brakes. I'm just looking into getting something to roll on soon cause I don't wanna ruin my friends wheels and have to buy him a new set of tires lol
