Wow that is a unique LS color. I personally think a silver, chrome, or brushed aluminum finish would look better with that "Almond" color. But it's personal preference. I personally think black/dark wheels look good on Black, White, or Silver cars. But if you like em, go for it!

I tend to agree with playa. Gray wheels might look good on my flint mica car, but I don't know about a lighter or almond color.

my only issue is that the car might look silly with those wheels on it and being all high at the stock height,, get that sucka lowered.

I would recommend some Chrome 20" wheels that will fit the car better. LS430 and LS460 wheel fitment is very different ~ you have much more room in the fender to get bigger lips with your car, so you should have some new wheels made.

Check out https://www.clublexus.com/forums/clu...o-clublex.html for some great inspiration.
