pweber5 Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 When I first saw the thumbnails (which you can't really see anything with), I was a little skeptical. But when I opened them up, those are the hotness. They look awesome! Where did you find them, or did you just get them from the dealer? When I find an LS I like, I'll seriously consider upgrading to those rims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Very nice! Much classier than an aftermarket option. Hows the ride difference from the 16s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LexusLooker Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Those are great looking wheels to begin with, and look great on you car. Definitely updates the looks. Great job. What kind of tires did you put on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwallican Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Nice. Funny how new wheels can make you feel like you have a new car! Just think, you have a new Lexus for a lot less than actually buying one. I just put a set on mine and I love it even more. Congrats!!

the-hedge Posted December 24, 2006 Author Share Posted December 24, 2006 There is less road feel increase than i expected. Most noticable at parking lot speeds. On the HiRoad it actually feels better, I think mainly because the Michelin Pilot HX MXV4 is abetter tire than the Toyo. I went from a 225/60/16 to a 245/45/18. I was looking at inflated circumference to fill the well. Tirerack.com is helpful. Also try http://www.dakota-truck.net/ then link to the tire and wheel calculator. The wheels came from eBay. The main concern there is getting bent/roadrashed wheels. Getting wheels there one must be careful. Communication and seller feedback are key.
