Question for the 21'' drivers
@PRSUIT460 Also, did you wrap your bumper extension (the part that holds the tow hook cover? I can't tell if that's the stock color or that it's all wrapped. The grill is still the stock dark gunmetal color or was it painted gloss black also?
The grille and bumper extension are stock color.
I believe the tire size is 265/35/21 for all 4. No spacers as these are a Custom HRE P101 setup. No rubbing. Ride isn't too terrible. I have a air suspension controller.

thanks! I didn’t want to wrap my bumper extension either.
I saw the P101 manufacturing. Pretty impressive! Build to order only it seems. Baller wheels you got there!

Little update...
Well almost a year later I can tell I finally found some nice wheels, which I hope looks good. I have to say I hope, since I didn't see the wheels, just bought on drawing. And no pictures avalibale in the combo color and wheel, so a slight gamble
Brand + type: Work HR201
Front: 21'' x 9J offset 32
Rear 21'' x 10,5 J offset 36
Steplip
Color hart of wheel: HPG, which looks like gold brown on some pictures I hope it combine with my Truffle Mica LS460
Lip color: chrome
So now the search continues for tyres, which is hopefully easier. I don't want a pulled tyre look so to say. So basicly I think the wider the tyre the more straight the tyre is on the side correct?
Front is easy for me will be 245/40/21
Based on my idea I think I have to go for 295/35/21 for the back
Is my thinking correct? Or with this setup I still have pulled tyres? Offcourse setup must not rub and my LS460 has air suspension, if that has influence.

I’m looking at 275/35 for my 9.5” LC500 rear wheels.
you’re at 295 or 285 yes. That offset is +1mm more than stock so your wheels would be pushed in a bit. 295 may rub. Did you check the wheel thread? It takes forever to go through but there are members there who post their 21” wheels, offset, and tire size. You’ll have to go through it carefully though.

I know the thread yes, saw it several times. However you don't really see well if the tyres are pulled or not on the pictures
According to the wheels guy the wheels will not be pushed in like standard. So will ask again to him, thanks for that.
