I'm a 5-spoke man but in this case I prefer the Portofino's. They are lucious on big luxo-barges.
Both are hot, though.

It is amazing how different a car can look with rims.

I like the Portofino's.

Not really fond of either of them, my problem with portofino's is that they look like the car is riding on flowers, especially from a distance ...

The WALD's look good but it seems like there are quite a few LS's rolling on the WALDs

I definitely agree with all of you. Theyre not so hot and at the same time theyre $$$.

WALD:
-Body kit im convinced with.
-Rims ( i'll look for something else ).

I agree with Rominl, those WALD's are crazy expensive, IIRC, I believe that the WALD's are 1 piece.

i believe they first came out with 1 piece forged, and later on they got the 3 piece version

but yes, wald wheels are extremely expensive imho. i don't want to use the word overpriced, coz' i think they are relatively rare. but in general you can get a lot of other quality wheels for much less

but hey, it's wald

Saw a 600 today with the Wald's ---- They looked good on the Green Car. How much do these cost?

The big wheels look ridiculous on the LS. But I'm old...

I'm not old and I think the stock 19" are the best looking of the three. The other two look out of place.
