Can anyone help me identify the wheels on this LS?
I really love the look of the wheels on this LS 430. I have been searching the web to find them, with no luck. The photo was taken in Japan, I think, so since the wheels are not on any of the 30 or 40 wheel sites in America, I'm betting they are from Japan. I have determined that they are not HRE or Lorinzer wheels, but they are similar. Have a look and see if you know what kind of wheels they are and if the guy that posted the pic is on, what size are they? They look like 20s to me. The text under the pic says "Needs to be dropped", but I think it looks perfect the way it is. It does look like it's been dropped aleast 2" in the pic already. Thanks for your help!

Look a bit like Auto Couture Supreme to me.

I agree with Dave.Although they are showing a black centercap and the AC's show a silver/chrome one.I think its just the pic that you cant see the grooves in the spokes.You can kinda see one on the front wheel though.

GREAT........THANKS!
I've never heard of LOCKSMICE Duke wheels. Are they any good? They do look great on the new LS though. I especially like the brushed look and the triangular wholes made by the stokes. Do you have a website for the company or know of a place that carries them? I did a quick search on Google and nothing came up.
You might be right about the size as well. They do look like 19s after careful inspection, which is fine with me. It just make the tires a little more resonable in price. Thanks again for your help.

That's them!
Thanks!
Now..................how do I get a set?
Is there an American distributor that anyone knows of?
How 'bout a website that has prices in dollars?
Are they high quality wheels?
What's your opinion?
Thanks again,
LL

19x8.5 depending on the finish will go for $775-$950
19x10 " " " " " " " $818-$993
Use this currency converter if u need the pricing for other wheels specs: http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert.cgi
They seem to be fairly high quality wheels, especially judging by the price (which is not always a factor to quality).
My opinion is obviously biased since I'm such a fan of dish wheels like Lonely Toothbrush mentioned. If you like 'em...go for 'em...if I had a 4th gen and the cash, I would definitely consider getting them.
