[QUOTE=brmcvay;6630110]Is this in Orlando/Clermont area you saw me? Yes I was there a couple weeks ago. Haha Thats crazy! Thank you for the kind compliments. Some prefer 22" lowered which also looks incredible. My car is Certified and I just didnt want to do anything to void my 100k warranty.



more like pine hills heading towards metro west... but i was in my truck....

Keep an eye out for my friends new profile coming up. His co. Is Autophysique and its a Black on Black LS460L on 24's with a lowering module and modified fenders. Its incredible! BTW are there any othe ladies on CL? Lol I feel alone :/ hahaha Congrats, good decision. Is it Nexen 275/25/R24 or Pirelli Nero? Tire diameter is 29.4'' that's 6.3% more as stock 245/45/R19 (27.7''). With other words, when speedometer reads 60mph actual speed will be 63.8mph: 6.3% faster. Usually electronic systems accept 3% difference only and acceleration is really bad. Did you adjust your odo?

Tell me more about your tail lights please.

Holy thread revival. This thread is from 2011, and the original poster hasn't logged in since 2013.

You may want to check out the thread below for answers, if none can be found, create a new thread.

I agree, 22's is the max I would go and 21's are actually perfect for the 460/600 IMO.

I partially agree with you mark, but on the ls460, 24s look perfect as far as you have no fender gap and it feels up the whole wheel wall, i think when you start jacking your ride up and making it sit high like a truck than it gets out of hand, but the 24 inch wheels that i have selected look very classy.

If i go with 22 or 21 tee, I would definitely have to lower my Ls460, to be honest i did a lot of lowering my cars back in my fast and furious days when i was a teenager. I spent so much money with lower springs, camber kits, tires not wearing out evenly, getting my oil pan replace from my car being low. So with those past experiences i just don't want to ever lower my car again. My gs350 with 22 inch wheels are perfect, no rub no scrub and best of all it feels up my whole wheel wall and looks very classy. But thanks for the input Tee.

I understand where you are coming from 100%, I seen 460's with 24's and they do eliminate some wheel gap depending on your taste. Long as you are happy with your choice/vision its all good, look forward to seeing the pics.

24's ride just as smooth as 22's. Like you said you put 24's on... no lowering required. My rim man just advised me that the offset depends on what wheels you are putting on there. And if the person that you are buying them from cant answer that question, look for someone that can.

21's are the perfect size but you're limited to tire selection unfortunately.

Offset for 24 x 9 fronts and 24 x 10.5 rears is roughly 25mm fronts 35mm rears depending on how aggressive you wish to be. Running Toyo's with this fitment shouldn't require fender work or suspension altering.

Whew!!!! Y'all dudes rough on the guys with fours. I'm going to mount them just to be different and get more info out there. I feel with a little fender work 255/30 fronts and 285/25 rears will fit. A little more cushing for the pushing. Poor ride quality is a moot point in my eyes. Anything past 35 series rides rough period but with the non altered suspension it balances out, of course they will be louder.
