Default Which VIP Modular for LS460L?

No that I have my dream ride, its time to slap on the wheels that I've always wanted. Problem is I'm not sure which one I should get for the LS460. Can I get your opinions?

I really like: VR03, VR06, VR08

What do you guys think?

I like the VR3, VR8 and then the VR6, in that order. Keep in mind that in order to make these wheels look good, you will probably need to upgrade you rotor/calipers too since these are open wheels.

VR2, VR5 or VR8, can't go wrong with any of them. However that VR6 would be a little different from what others are doing style wise right now.

yes, 420mm rotor for a 22" = money

The 08 is way to simple imho. The classic mesh design of the 06 is unbeatable in my book


I am in love with mesh design or split spoke ( but as many spokes as I can get . This is why I went with the Vossens VVS082)

I agree the 08 is too simple and can only be pulled off nicely with a fat azz lip which will require a lot of fenders mods, something I don't really want to do.

I like the 06 but every rim I have ever owned has looked like that...but I think it will look sick and I don't think I've seen it on an LS460 yet.

I'm really liking the 03 since its a combo of both split spoke and star...damn...confused!

I would love the mesh on a is but as far as the ls I would go with the vr05. since the lex is a big ride I think solid spokes look awesome. but you can't go wrong with either I chose the vr08
