Default Crome rims on ebay...thoughts ?

Hi all,

I was doing my weekly browsing of LS430 parts and cars on ebay and I came across these
No ebay links to auctions
As they are not OEM (what I was really looking for) they have a nice look and at a very fair price, after looking around at other rims. Just wondering if they are any good (if someone knows this seller) and thoughts of how they would look on my 01 Ls430....

Don't want to possably dump cash on rims that might be junk...

Thanks !

I think they are nice. You just have to be careful what you buy on ebay. I and several people here have gotten burned by ebay. Read all user feedback & good luck with your choice.

I don't know the seller but I think the rims would look great on an LS, and 98.5% positive feedback out of over 15,000 comments is about as good as you could hope for. One of the negatives I read was because the item was out of stock and the buyer felt he wasn't informed fast enuf. That's a picky reason to leave a negative, maybe warrants a neutral at most, so with people like that out there 98.5 is very good indeed.

Ok I am really getting interested!!! I have the stock 16 inch tires and rims on a 98 LS400. If I get the 18 inch rims what size tires do I need to have . I really want to order these because I was about to order OEM Rims from California for 1200 plus shipping. If these look the same and has good quality then I am going to buy them. But I always think you get what you pay for so I am leary!!!! HELP!!!

Those rims have rivits, where the stockers dont.

For tires, I would suggest 245/45/18.

Not yet, gota wait till the cash is free, maybe about a month or so. I really think they look great and I am getting closer. The price looks right, I was really wondering if anyone else has ordered them, and what their thoughts are. I think they would look awsome on a LS430....wonder if I should post on the photoshop forum...
