My friend's dad has a set of 20's of these rims on his 98 LS400. And my friend put it on his GS4 at a recent show and my mom told me if I didn't have something good to say about something don't say it..

HI98GS might have pictures of it...

Look like a the Lowenhart BR5's to me. If you want to put some wheels, especially 20's on your Lex, better make sure they are quality rims---the worse thing is to see a nice car with some cheap *** wheels or some damn knockoffs.

just my 2 cents

I agree with putting on cheap rims is stupid, but I like the design of those wheels. I like Lowenharts and all but they're getting a little too played out, the LD-1's were played out awhile ago, and now the BR-5's are. I'm trying to look at some Auto Couture rims now.

Have you looked on WORK's site? Those are definitely knock-off's...ANYTHING ADR makes is a knock-off...

IT is a BIG fall from Lowenhart/AC to ADR!! However, All the AC(autocouture) wheels are very exclusive in the states. I have only seen one set so far on an AC sponsored GS, and it is STUNNING.

Where can I buy some WORK wheels. I'm not too fond of the WORK EQUIPS, they're too bland imo. I like the design like the Modellos.

Thanks for ur comment on equips. however, here is the link www.work-wheels.co.jp that Modellos looks like something belongs to a truck, 8.5 with no lips won't suit your GS. especially the back.

think twice.
