That really makes me want an LS430 right now. I wonder if 5 spokes like Stewilli has or those would look better on my 98Ls4?

I think with the right size(at least 18-inch,) offset(flush look with the fenders,) and definitely a drop....all kinds of wheels such as dish, spoke, or mesh will look good on an LS(unless u pick some really ugly and nasty wheels.)

My wheels are specs for a 350z so I could have low offsets. I had to run 255/35 on my 20x10 so it wouldn't rub the rear fenders, my post was a joke because I thought you knew I had 20x10 on a 255/35. The wheels look great with the low offsets see

Damn ATSOU, you could trade in your Rezak II for another 1st gen.

I personally think those are one of the baddest rims ever made

Check em out on a 3rd gen:

Depends on the size and finish. My 20-inch staggered with super chrome cost around $6K with tires.

That looks wikid mate, tyres that are a bit too small look better than tyres a bit to big.
That stretched look is massive in Australia
