Default Just picked my car up! wheels?

hello everyone, i just picked up my 2008 LS460L today and its beautiful! I was thinking about putting wheels (prob 22'') but i was wondering if anyone had any pics of 22''s without lowering the car because i don't want to mess with the suspension...thanks for the replies!

Rominl, that was a cool read on the entire thread, plus your car was really nice, did you end up with something along the lines of what you sold, or are you playing humble till the economy does its adjustments?

thanks for the compliment. actually a little bit of both. still shopping for our next car but the economy does give me more reason to delay it. currently thinking m5, cls63, s5, who knows what else....

Here's a link to a thread of an LS that wasn't lowered. It's lowered now but these are pre-lowered pics. I'm sure Al won't mind.

My pics show 22s on stock ride height. I have Datasystems module, but this was at stock setting for reference. IMO you gotta lower it

Congrats on your new car and what a car it is. The Key to putting wheels on these cars is the right style, size, fitment and finish. I'd love to kelp you with your choice, let me know

i see that most ppl that have the LS460L use the datasystems module to lower the car, however, i cant seem to find where to purchase this, or whether or not there are other alternatives......

do you already have the air suspension? almost all ls460l have air suspension already, so the controller is all you need. it's a pretty cheap option
