Thoughts?

pektel I value your opinion on most topics regarding the LS, especially when it comes to paint,waxing, etc etc. Some of my recent purchases have been on your suggestion. Now, with that being said, and with all due respect. I really, really really do not like those wheels. I've seen you suggest them before in other threads and have looked at them quite a lot, and I just can not get anywhere near liking them. Personally I think the ones you have in your avatar look 54893489054390 times better.
But I hope you do, and I hope you enjoy them. :Beer



Yeah trying to price compare after I made this thread I soon realized euro shocks were not an option. Yes I do like jag wheels, I would do some unspeakable things for Barcelona's. However, I do also like money.

No worries. Different strokes. Which is why I didn't give a subjective opinion on any of the three choices listed. They'd probably look fine, but just don't "do it" for me. But that's why they make so many different wheels for us.

The wheels in my avatar and on my car now are my all time favorite wheels for the LS. But they are atrociously heavy, and I like performance as well as looks. My car feels slow as f*ck with them.

...now I need to find a Money tree...

Actually no joke, this is the real deal, we have one in our living room, twisted roots like that and all ... but has yet to blossom real money.

I would get these if they were at least 8.5" in width or available in 19"

Thanks for the replies, I was initially leaning towards number one. However, after the responses and a some input from my buddies number 3 is looking more like the winner here. I found a image of the wheel that really shows off the finish a bit better and that also really convinced me.

Also, can someone tell me the weight of the wheel I currently have on the car. I can't find it anywhere and just want to know if I'll be gaining or losing.

I don't know for a fact, but I would expect that they are designed to allow at least some rotation.

Well.... I've been getting a vibration like I had when the bottom bolt was about 5-7º loose. I attacked the mounting bolt and it was at least 2 threads loose. I tightened the nut until I couldn't tighten any more and the piston doesn't spin; easily. Some shops.......
