Default My 95 GS Lowered with Ohlins Coilovers and 18" L-Tuned Wheels

As most of you recall, I got the Ohlins Coilovers whille back but with ghetto stock 16" wheels. I just got a used set of L-Tuned 18" wheels for 2nd Gen GS with tires for a really good price. After I got the wheels, I realized that these are really rare due to the fact that Lexus only offers L-Tuned from 2000-2002. There were two version of L-Tuned wheels, 17" and 18". The 18" are much harder to find and both are made by OZ Racing wheels. What I like about the 18" is that they are staggered, 18" x 8" (front), 18" x 9.5" (rear). Anyhow, let me know what you guys think. All comments are welcome. Enjoy

Yes, but my wife will be driving this GS every now and then. As you know woman driver ( especially Asian driver ), I might as well getting ready to buy a new set of wheels. This is also the reason why I went with this route, one piece wheels instead of 2 or 3 pieces deep dish wheels.

Thank you all. The reason my Land Cruiser have so many was because the 1st owner who is my Manager drove close to 200 miles a day. It's still running on original engine and transmission. Very smooth and quite. It's now my family car whenever we go on long trip like Vegas.
