they do look quite small on the ls400. they did come off an accord coupe. i don't think it looks bad at all. quite attractive in my opinion. but it definitely needs some spacers. and honestly my turn signals are perfect. a lot of ppl don't like em. but I'm a big fan of amber for some reason.

Probably the most boring setup here but I've just installed these refurbished BBS RGs.
Spec: 17x8 ET39 front and 17x9 ET50 rear
Centre bore: 60mm & perfect fitment for the LS400.
Clears the front calipers without spacers.
These are forged apparently and when I weighed both the 8j and 9j, they both are slightly less than 8kg each. Picked them up for quite a reasonable price and quite happy with them

clear headlight lense with orange turn signal
orange side marker lens
two yellow fog lenses - only one lights up so looks like different yellows
plus yellow wheels that kinda match the yellow fog lenses
--grill and ride height looks good though!
just clear side markers and polished wheel would look less busy IMO
BUT in comparison i have ultra white headlight bulbs, oem yellow fogs, and oem colored corner headlights.
along with the oem orange corners and side markers - none of my car really flows at night ha
^^^this guy up there has the right idea =]

Thanks... I think Japanese manufacturer's are conservative overall. The only Japanese car I know with nice mesh OEM wheels is the R32 GTR V-spec 2

Pretty sure those are all SuperRS's. Similar but different and not really at all what I was suggesting...
Wider, more aggressive and more lip... Like a lot more.
With the models I'm talking about, you could probably stuff of 5" or even 6" slant lips in the back with 3-4" slants in the front.
Very different look than what you posted... If I can find a set, I'm going to build them into 18x10 5et and 18x13 -5 et for my 930...
