Does anybody have pics of the Verde 5ive wheels on an LS?
Also what size tires would I need with 18's on the LS?

Those look cool. I'd recommend either 245/45-18 or 245/40-18. I'm running the 40's on my LS.

Yeah, I'm thinking 245/45-18's. I'm thinking the 45 will provide "a bit" more cushion on the ride and protection for the wheels from the Mississippi potholes.

I should be OK putting these on and lowering it with the Eibach Lincoln Ls Pro Kit shouldn't I? I think that would probably equal out to a nice ride height without being "too" harsh a ride.

Then on to some nice rotors......


Are these the 40's in your photo gallery?

Those were the Hankook Ventus tires. They were the 245/45-18 tires. They rubbed too much so I went with the 245/40-18 when I replaced them.

What wheels are those? I'm usually not a fan of chrome wheels on cars, but those are some GOOOD lookin wheels!

They are OZ Classe Racing Wheels. They only come in a painted grey color. I sent them Wheel Concepts and had them chrome plated. They are a one of a kind.

I do like the grey wheels!! Any idea where a good place to get them would be? What offset are you running? (I saw you're running 245/40 R 18... same size I'm looking to run) No clearance problems?
