eatingupblacktop Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Nice rims but don't know how they'd look on an UCF10? One thing they will definitely show is how small the rotors are on the gen1 LS's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcrome04 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 They are pretty nice. Just make sure that you don't get a low low low profile tire or it will look gross! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IS400 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 I have Gen 1 IS wheels on my Gen 1 LS400 and everyone thinks they are stock for my car! Then there are the non lexus types that think I drive a Maurader! Those wheels are sick though and they are unique. Don't get chrome. That is just a little too flashy and as a girl I think chrome looks like you are trying too hard. Just my opinion tho. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eatingupblacktop Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 The IS rims that IS400 has on her LS are quite different from the Stern rims you have in mind. The Stern spokes are much thinner and with a 40 series profile it definitely helps to have bigger crossed drilled rotors and even painted calipers. Saw a set of 20" on an older RL with 35 tires and not lowered. Looked ridiculous. All that empty space made the stock discs and calipers look like miniatures. To pull off a cool set of wheels is a finely tuned balancing act. Sometimes you can't pinpoint what's wrong but when it's right, everyone knows it.
