But this guy ain't "Big PIMPIN" as he says, we all know you need Luis vuitton leather and Lambo doors.

On another note, happy to see a lot of LS having 100K+ miles on ebay. Not happy about the prices they're going for, but then again I don't plan on selling.

I have seen that LS on ebay couple of months ago, the car itself doesn't look in a great shape, but the rims are off the hook, damn.. that's all I can say about it. I wouldn't buy it though, I would just put some 22s on mine.

But I just looked at it again and I don't think I am gonna put 22s on my LS, look at the right front fender!

22's weren't meant for this car. 20's look good, but 22's are just excessive. It's like putting 24's on an buick.

I see these cars around but i didn't realize that they have to put lift kits for the wheels to fit. I thought you only did that on 4x4's.

Hey Artur are those rims the same ones you got? I really think 22 inch rims on a four door sedan looks tacky. Why does big necessarily mean better in today's world. I had thoughts of putting 18s on the LS. I have pondered the idea of 20s or 19s also, but 22s? I do not want all the attention of my car to be on the wheels when I am driving down the street. Wheels are very important but that is secondary to me, I want the focus to be on the car and then rims.

Personally, i think 18's or 19's look the best on an LS. I think 20's are the absolute extreme for an LS. I totally agree with ya on this one.

Posted by: FreeFaller

22's are just wayy too big for this car IMHO

Posted by: HyeLifeLS

Those are Arrelies, mine are D'Vinchis, but they still look somewhat similar. I like those rims though, if there wouldn't be problems (Which I think is impossible) with fitting em I would go for 22s. I like the looks. But it's better to stick with 20 in every way. And also Bigger-only looks better.

HyeLife, are you lowered?

I do not believe he is lowered, but I will let Artur give you the exact answer. He has 20 inchers but I do not think he did anything to the frame.

I wanna see some video of these LS's on 22's. I don't think you can turn with those Mickey Thompson's on. I can just picture these guys driving really fast and throwing on the e-brake and hoping the car slides in the direction you want it to go.
