I just bought these wheels last week and have them on my car now. Just curious if anyone has ever run across this guy anywhere on any forums.

did you get ripped off or something? Just wondering, also I dont think I have seen him around here.
 
no, not ripped off, great guy, just wondering if he's a fellow LVC'er since a lot of us go by different names. Just curious more than anything.

Not enough info. His "name", what wheels, from where he shipped, stuff like that
 
Not the best pics, but will do for now. Will take better ones soon. 255/40/19's rear 245/40/19's front. Had to edit out the license plate, the flash off of it almost blinded me.

nice rims man how are the 19's do they rub, seems like your car is lowered im thinking of 19's too, i cant hadle alot of rubbing since i always have peaple in my car....
 
why stagger size for 1cm? seems like virtually no visual or performance difference and you lose the ability to rotate. just wondering.

I agree with you. I bought the wheels and tires like this, but eventually will change to all 245/40's. the 255/40 doesnt make much of a difference on the back anyway.

Thanks, So far no rubbing even with a 2" drop. I wouldnt go wider than the 245/40 just to be safe. I can for see problems with rubbing with 255's on these wheels. I have a 42mm offset on these.
 
Can I ask what kind of wheels those are? They look fantastic on the LS. Great looking car!! That is the exact plan I have for my 02 LSE, you just had to beat me to it. :)
 
love it man

Thank, These wheels are made by Fondmetal in Italy, they make the OEM wheels for Lamborghini as well and have a extensive Formula 1 racing wheel testing facility. It seems to be excellent quality so far. The wheel model is 9x.

Looks great! I recommend that you get the all red LSE tail lights.
 
Excellent choice!
Those wheels are perfect for a Silver LS.
I agree with Ken, get the all red tail lights like mine.

Thank you!! I thought the same when I found these wheels. Silver on silver and it turned out ok. I agree with both you and Ken about the all red tails. I wanted to get them at first, but then I loved the red/white tails when I bought the car over the all red ones on my 02. But it will look less distracting with all red tail lights to the overall appearance. Now if they only had license plates in different colors to match the car!! :D

My other option now is the 04 LSE spoiler, dont know if I should go for it.
 
Yea thats looking real good, makes me want to lower mine. I do like the all red tails too, no matter what year.

You have to make it out when KBX and I start hitting the GLD again. At least you'll have me to beat up on.:)
