18's and springs.....whats he talkin about! Go 20's and springs. I dont think an all black wheel would work though. The green/black combo would look good but you also have some chrome on your to think about. Your wheels should tie in with the finish of your trim. I have a black LS with black and chrome wheels, I wanna do the wheels all black but then all the other stuff wouldnt match right. Oh and them tips look like they should be hangin under the bumper of a Chevy truck!

^^^+1 i have +40 mm offset, and i'm pretty sure i'm cutting it close, but wouldn't recommend 35, in fact i think 38 is lowest you can go without rubbing

i'm just going to wing it and say the lip is what makes it a "deep dish" rim if you want to call it that, like on the ADR's above that chrome ring is the lip, so if its 2.25" in the front that how big it will be and if the rear is 2.75" it will have a bigger lip in the rear then the front

You are correct on that. The lip is what gives a rim that deep dish look. Check my pics in my profile and you'll see what +35 ET looks like. The wheels sits flush with the fender. The wheel only rub if you hit bumps in the road doing at least 60 mph. Most of the rims that I've seen for the LS past and present mostly are made in 35 ET. I"m actually going to sell my rims and go with something with a 42 ET and with the lug nuts exposed.
 
Haha, nah I don't have serious interest into those Katanas, but I am curious as to how they would look on a black LS. Black wheels are originally what I was going to do, but I am still very happy with the route I took.
 
o c'mon.... lol i was going to go all black too, but it just doesn't look right all black because it blends into the wheels well and looks like a donut, you need chrome or something to help out, i was going to get 19s also but i'm pretty satisfied with 18s

i don't see the point of getting tips if their not going to stick out :mad: it looks stupid to buy them and have them look like factory...if i had rims i bet they would look great :D
