Default New 08 LS460 owner here. Need wheel ideas!

Hey great site! I'm picking up my 08 LS460 this weekend and the first thing I MUST do is get some wheels for it. Can anyone and everyone post pics of LS460s with wheel upgrades so I can get an idea? My car is black. I don't want anything too 'sporty' looking and I dont plan on lowering this car. Havent had much luck finding anything that caught my eye browsing the net the past few days so I figured i'd ask here.

Thanks!

The off set on this car plays a factor as I found out when shopping around! If you scroll through the threads some of the fellas have posted in here, you will find several different types of wheels on the LS Series.

I also have a thread on my wheels if you want to review it, and I also posted up my ride with pics with wheels at a stock height and with my lowering module! You might want to reconsider lowering yours! That was the 1ST thing I did! An absolute MUST!

I think most of good wheel shops (high-end and dedicated wheel shops) they can photoshop for you free of charge.

VOSSEN would be my suggestion. That company makes some nice looking wheels. I love the rolled lips on their wheels. It gives the wheels a higher end look. They also stand by the wheels and provide a 2 year manufacturers warranty. For a while they were even offering Club Lexus members an opportunity to check out their wheels up close and personal by shipping a single wheel to your home so you could have the chance to see the wheel design and quality . I have never heard of a company that would do that for a potential customer.

I just bought an LS460 and I am going to do a set of Vossens. I ordered them today and I am excited

I am doing the vvs82's. I think the 82's and 83's look great on the car.

Congrats on the new LS, one of my favorite rides too!

I'm really looking forward to see how mod the new car, since I liked how you did the last GS.

Here is one I recently did for a Lexus dealer....20'' Lumarai Morro in chrome(available in Black and silver) the Lumarai is a direct bolt wheel with OE off set and is hub centric, will accept Lexus center cap and OE lug nuts, the tires are the new Vogue 245/40VR-20 Signature V (99V) best tire warranty on the market.
