Never posted a pic of my recent purchase, 2012 LS 460. This replaced my 2008 LS 460. It was hard to turn this one down as it only had 8900 miles on it and had all the bells and whistles (and some I didn't need) that I wanted in my LS. The interior is the light gray with a really interesting wood (kind of gray and black?) and replaced an all black interior of my 2008. Anyway, my "new" wheels.

22" x 10.5" Rear +45 offset

245 30 22 Front, 295 25 22 rear, no rubbing at stock height.

^^I have a few questions if you don't mind. Are you using any spacers on those Forgiatos? Were they custom built to the 460? How much lip is there on the rear? Thinking about picking up some Forgiatos and was just wondering because the rear +45 looks like it can be a little lower to gain a bigger lip.

I had some on my last car (magnum), with a rear of +20 and 6" lip. Im curious to see if I can achieve that on the 460. Car is looking clean btw!

You should also look into whether or not they offer different Disk/Face types. For example Work Wheels offer different Disks to customize the fit around brakes. Some are shallower and some are thicker. The more shallow the more lip you can get but you just have to make sure it clears the brakes.

Thanks! I went to a local rim shop and they were custom built for another car but the person didn't take them.

I'm not using spacers and I don't think I will be putting them as it may cause rubbing issues. The guy said I could have gone with a +30 offset but they didn't have any.

I never measured the size of the lip.... I'll do that this week and let you know.

I got a good deal and it was the look I wanted, brushed aluminum with a polished lip staggered.

I was kind of embarrassed after cause I never heard of this brand and my other friends knew all about them. I didn't know they were high end.

Thanks for the input. I will ask them about the different faces next time. And you are right about the back spacing. I was curious about his, because i couldn't see a closeup of his wheel, but from those pictures, his rear "face" seems a bit out there, but after looking at them again, the face is kind of close to the caliper already. I haven't run across any 460 on forgiatos on CL, so i was hoping it was a custom set, so i could pick at his brain a bit.


Id really appreciate it if you don't mind. Also since you'll have the tape measure out, can you see how many millimeters is the rim from the brake caliper?

Lol about the brand. Isn't it nice to find out that you got a deal on some designer wheels? Ive been on the other forum (LX dodge/ chrysler) when I had my Magnum. The one guy who does the wide bodies on majority of the magazine cars (Topo his IG is wide_body_king) did the first wide body on his Charger back in 06 ish. He uses Forgiatos on all of the cars and that's how I heard of the brand. Now a days, its on a lot of super high end cars and all of the wide body cars.
