Pic Request: white wheels on LR

I'm in the market for a new set of wheels and I would like to go white...I just don't know how they would look on a Laser Red coupe. If you have any pictures please help me out. Thanks

Matt

good luck with that. i've only seen three g's with white wheels. all of the g's are IP.

not saying it doesn't exist, but i've surely never seen it.

...And that isn't always a good thing, but that's generally why I'd like to do it

Well, looking at it even from tirerack.com I like it. I just am afraid it will give it a bad look...this is a luxury car and I have no problem with that, I just want to do something different. However in doing that I don't want to ruin the look of the car. I also considered black O.Z. Ultraleggera's since I'm most likely going with a black roof.

Anyway, the wheels I'm looking at are Gram Lights 57Maximum

I think it'd look sick, one of my friends has a red IS300 with white wheels. The two colors seem to go together very well...

LR with white wheels....?

LR with white wheels, rarely done....maybe there's a reason why. Have
someone photoshop this combination before you make the move. Last time
I saw white wheels they were on a white car.

Yeah I used to have an S2000 and that's a very common thing to do with S2000 owners. I'll try to have someone photoshop it I suppose.

For some reason when I think of white wheels on a bright colored car I definitely think of cheaper cars rather than luxury cars like you mentioned.

but at the same time it sounds like you have a good handle on style for our cars so I am sure what you end up going with will work well.

I have a LR coupe too and never considered how white would look. if you go for it be sure to post pix cuz Im sure youll do it right if you go thru with it
