Default New shoes for the 1LS

Got another new set of rims for the LS. This time with awesome offsets.

AME Shallen LX

19x9 +25 hi-disk 225/35/19 Falken FK452
19x10 -7 hi-disk 235/35/19 Falken FK452

I'll be doing some crazy brake work eventually so that's why I went hi-disk. It's gonna be fun trying to fit these on the rears :P Hydros soon to come as well. Will post updated pics when those are on.

19x10:

Agreed nice set. Selling any wheels ?

The polish would take about 5 minutes -- Those just need to be wiped down.

Put those puppies on..

Test fit the wheels on Sunday (it rained so it's dark out), here's some pics.

Rears need to be pulled at least 25mm.
