The OEM wheels are awesome though. Like you said, I too wish they were 19"s.

The factory stocks are great, but I only like them in chrome. What kind of wheels did yours come with?

I too wish they are 19s though, would be perfect. Too bad it cost too much to make, is not worth it.
Can we see a pick of the rear wheels that you modified? would love to see how that turned out.

Here are a few other pictures of my LS. I'll be raising it up once the snow clears up and then I'll throw my new wheels on.

I never took picture of just the wheel itself, the weld is beautiful. It looks pretty much like this:
Google image search "wheel widening", there are tons of pics on this subject.

Whoa! That looks cool. I've never seen what the welds on a widened wheel looked like before.

Oh, I meant the matte black cars themselves. The matte black wheels are cool though.
