Hello guys. I just bought a 2001 Lexus LS 430 Ultra Luxury. Here are the pics of it:

Can you tell me if these rims are originals or after market?
Any suggestions in general?

 

Nice LS! I am pretty darn sure those are aftermarket wheels but they look alright anyway.

 

Not a stock Lexus wheel I've ever seen. They look okay but not enough to keep long term. I'm put a set of 19's on there as soon as I could.
Congrats on the ride.

 

nice UL man. looks very clean. def not stock lexus wheels though. i see nothing wrong with leaving them on for a while though.

why do you want him to get 19's as soon as possible? are the 19's really that much better of a ride than the 20's?

 

Thanks
I don't know about 19" rims, because quality of roads in Ny is very poor.
The car has 85000 miles. Any mainenance to do at that milage or leave it and computer in the car will tell me if mainenance is required?

 

im in new york as well. on long island. my boss has 19" rims on his m45 sport and he has gotten 4 or 5 flat tires already in the past few months. im very hesitant to change my rims b/c i love the ride quality on the stock ones and i dont wanna spend ~2k for rims that im gonna have to replace tires on and risk damaging the rim itself

 

those are 18" staggered oz salinas. if im not mistaken, they were a part of an l-tuned package available for the 2nd gen gs.

 

Thanx. One more question:
Will my stock cd changer play mp3's?

 

Those are L-Tuned Salinas. They are Lexus wheels.

 

Welcome to the LS club!!

 

Thank you so much. Now I know my car is all ariginal.

So Philly1

Thank you.

[QUOTE]Definitely it will not. It plays CD-R and you can convert (lossless) flac files to wav and burn a (red book) Audio-CD.
All you need to play MP3's from 80GB HDD or USB stick is described here: http://vaistech.com/vml.php[QUOTE]

Nice! Now where do I order it? At that site there is no link to buy it.

 

You just missed their summer sale yuri.ber.
See what they can do though:
