Got new wheels for my SC300
Picked up a set of Lowenhart LD1s from my buddy for $1500. He was gonna put them on his LS400 but unfortunately totalled the car. They are 19x8.5 front, 19x9.5 rear.
Now I'm gonna have to lower the car a bit, and up the boost on the twins to overcome the wheel weight lol...

Nice wheels but you will be hurting when u need new tires as 19" tires can cost 1000+--a good set of brand new 19" tires could run you $1500+ ($350+ a tire!!) 
I was going to get 19's but opted for 18's due to the tire cost. Whatever u do avoid making enemies 
A buddy of mine got his tires slashed after just putting his new shows on--boom $1500 and insurance will not cover tires (as far as I know)

When I showed the car to one of my friends, he asked me why I put SUV rims on my car. 
At first I wasn't sure how the car would look...I'm more of a "performance rim" kind of person...but my friend owed me money and had the rims sitting there...so it worked out.

For the last 3 years I've seen this style of wheel on more cars around SoCal than anything else. But like they say, as long as YOU like it then

I thought $1500 was a good deal, last I checked these rims went for $900+ each. Not to mention the 275/30/19 S03 Pole Positions that came with the rears are probably $300+ each.

****, picture settings were set to low on my phone so the pics are real small. but here are similar rims on the escalade.
only difference might be the bolt pattern i think.
