Hi all, Thanks for looking
Tires are Kuhmo Ecsta SPT - 245/35/ZR20
Planning on tinting soon, decided on 3M ceramic based film
was thinking about 35 all around ( maybe 20 on the rear )
Lowering is not an option, this is my daily driver and family car.
Surprised by comments, the wheels actually look very nice in motion and have turned many heads. ( remember that commercial for Cadillac STS - kids playing hockey in the street, then someone shouts " Car " and everyone stops and stares ). I suppose that dependant on age demographics I wanted to shed the old fart lexus stock rims for a fresher look. Have searched through plenty of pics and sorry everyone the standard 5 spoke let your undies show is not my style.

Hey man...nice car!! Dont worry about what others say.. if you like it then that is all that counts!! Well when you post pics up... and ask for opinions.. you must be ready for all sorts of comments!!
One thing you have to realize, forums as such are infested with people who like the modding ways of the Japanese tuner market. Chrome wheels like the one you have on the car are considered as cheap and not tasteful wheels for a full blown VIP car (LS430)!! IF the car is not equipped with staggered 3pc wheel setup and a slammed stance then.... get ready for harsh opinions!
There are two ways of turning heads... wow that is one nice looking car.. and then there is what the hell was he thinking!! This also depends on who is judging the car... someone that looks at my EVO.. could easily say, what the hell was he thinking when he got GOLD wheels for a GREY car.. then again, the EVO community absolutely adores the combo!!
Some one that is not into the VIP thing would easily say, why on earth would you have big wheels and low profile tires on a luxury boat (LS430) and on the other hand say.. wow...even a big boat as such could look sporty and sleek with some mods... Lots of different ways of looking at things!!
Just an opinion, dont you worry... you like it then why on earth would you care about others!! your money and your car!!
