They actually look like 22's. What size tires are you running?

Wow !!! That's over 9% difference from you stock setup. When going to plus sizing, you should keep the max difference to 3%.

That's not the point......you speedo is now off.....your handling is compromised.....you've increased your rolling diameter and overall rolling weight that also impact braking. I suspect you'll go through brake pads like crazy.

Excess unsprung weight.....no tires made that will be close to the rolling diameter of the stock tire......increased braking distance......incorrect speedo due to incorrect tire sizing.

Wow and I was scared of potholes with my 22" wheels... I hope you have amazing roads where you live sir! I bent a 22" wheel on my first set on the LS460 and we have decent roads here in Tennessee...
