Another friend just hooked up a set of Lowenhart LE1's in 20x9.0 and 20x10.0. Many of you may know I'm very anti-Lowenhart & May/Trafficstar due to their hollow lip technology (no strength at all... bends all the time), but these LE1's were contracted by Work Wheels so the quality is MUCH better... Let me know what you guys think!

Here's another angle... The wheels finish is called BPP (black polished polish) similar to Trafficstars GPP (graphite polished polish). The lip of the wheel is high polished. THe centers are machine cut polished, and the windows of the spoke are painted black....

This car tripped me out... It's one of the earlier production cars but here some weirdo facts:

1) Car has the PSC sensor button adn ML, but no sensors...
2) I think this is the first I've seen w/o factory spoiler
2) Car has Navi, but no back-up camera...

WWEEEIIIRDDD....

Very weird. I have yet to see a 3GS without the factory spoiler and I've looking specifically for that. Starting to think that they don't even sell the 3GS w/o the spoiler. The IS250/350 seems to be the opposite though. Haven't seen too many on the street with spoilers.

I like those wheels. Takes the stock pattern and thins it up.

It looks naked w/o the rear spoiler. Haha, I'm feeling the wheels though.

I like them, yeah, they look good on the car. Nice flow with the gs lines. Got that luxury/sporty combo thing going on.

Rims look ok.........IMO they would look much better on a SUV like the Escalade or Range Rover.

Looks good a little too conservative in styling for my taste, I'm looking forward to seeing this rim on someone's 3Gs

The rims look very nice. It fits with the GS very well.

Don't know the price but multi piece chrome, gotta be at least 4K.

They look hotttt....perfect for GS/LS.

Good guess, I just checked the price, they're 3 piece wheels. price is $3900-$4100 depending on combination 20x8.5 and 20x10 or 20x10.5
