Fellas,

I have a silver 2007 LS ...

I am looking into the rims that i have attached below. Apparently they are Vellano wheels off of a BMW 760. 3 yrs old. the seller claims that they were approx 9000 at the time. All shenanigans aside, I think they are nice wheels. Questions ? Comments ? Concerns?

My plan is to buy them (maybe) and then refinish the wheels.

Thanks,

here is the actual link if someone else is interested in the south Florida area:

vellano are good wheels did you check there site??? 3 piece forged. I just make sure they have been rebuild and there are no issues, because they cost some change to get them resealed if you break the seal, but that most 3 piece wheels if you have issues as far as leaks.. what's the asking price and were they made for the 460 or a 7 series? if the 7 they are more aggressive and they might fit too well might be too wide, trust me on this.

x2 on what Lextrician said. Ive tried on about 5 7 series rims on my LS and all have had to aggressive offsets and did not fit.

If they're for a 7 series the offset will probably be too low for the 460. You can make them work but you'll need to have a body shop do work on your cars fenders and quarters.

i have vellano wheels on my ls and they are fine no problems with anything no vibration smooth good luck

They look good..ask they can meet you at the tire place so they can spin them up on the balancer to see if there are any dead spots or shimmy's to worry about. Also ensure the bolt pattern is correct and like stated before, check that the offsets are the same for each end of the car, especially in front will be lower most likely so you would have to be concerned about rubbing on the front fender. Stock LS460 offset is 32 or 35 iirc, I bet these are low to mid 20s..you might be ok though..its all about the test fit with a tire on to know for sure.

front is gonna stick out the rears might be okay same issues with me but mines were 2 piece, bought new barrels but they werent cheap.

There are a lot of things that go into proper fitment in a vehicle. Start with test fitting them on the car If you can. Then decide if you it looks good and if you need to modify the fenders if it rubs, and also natural camber from lowering the car can make a difference.

Hey Pushkar,

Aren't you the same one, who when posting about doing brakes wrote:
.

"the service adviser also recommended that I get new brakes for the front and back for $299.00 each. Approx $600.00 in total. Any recommendations, comments, concerns?

***please note: Money is a major issue, but so is the longevity of my 2007 LS ***"

Did you hit the lotto last week?

How do these bling wheels add to the longevity of your LS? What am I missing?

those 6 inch chrome lips gotta be huge as well definitely need to check fitment.

Those are sweet wheels. Go for it.
