Hi, I finally have these installed in my car a while back but I think they are too big for my car and I think the chrome rims will look better on black LS. As a result, I have ordered a new chrome set of Amistad, type F and they won't be here until mid-March. Once I have them installed and my car dropped, I will post some new pics. Take care.

What kind of tires u got on there? do they rub when u drive? Did u have to roll the fenders? I want to get 20" too but need to find the right fitments before i order the rims.
Thanks,

Hi, I have staggered wheel setup on my car with Front-20x8.5 and Rear-20x10. For tires, 245/35/20 in the front and 255/35/20 in the rear. Since I didn’t drop my car, I didn’t notice any rubbing at all and I didn’t have to roll the fenders either. In addition, I think 19s will look better on LS ….20s is just too big and it makes the car look like a SUV. In my opinion, LS looks nice due to its long body (just like the old model of Honda Accord LS or EX) and in keeping it low/close to the ground will make the body even longer. Good luck Lpham_3.

I like the wheels alot man and I plan on painting the bottom of my car black so it'll look like yours. Did you say your going with a smaller wheel? Is that because you want to lower your car?

Hi Stefwilli, I think 20s is just too big for me. I will drop my LS with a new set of Tein CS coilovers. In addition, I have also ordered a new set of chrome Amistad, type F and hopefully I have everything ready for installations by mid-March. I just can't wait to see a new look of my LS. Take care

I think it's the style of the wheels that makes them look so big. Wow your spending big money on your baby coilovers, new wheels, I can't wait to see the finished product. Good luck with everything.

Stefwilli, I agree with you on the fact that the style of the wheels that make them appear so big. I used to have 20" chrome Lowenhart LD1, same as yours, on my LS and they didn't look as huge as this.

RA40, I didn't weigh these rims/tires; however, they seem to be quite heavy. The rim itselt I think weighs around 35 lbs each and that's still a lot lighter compared to those cheapy ones out there for a 20-inch chrome rim .
