Did you run any spacers in the front or the rear with these wheels?

Depending on how low the offset is there's a good chance of 18's being too "big"

Correction I have a unique style. I'm not biting off anybody style.lol. So far I haven't seen anybody on here with these wheels on a GS in chrome yet. Might be some on here but I haven't seen it. + I have chrome door handles to blend in with the rims.

of course, i still keep them because the tires are cheaper and more comfortable for long long drives

THIS. i spent some time researching this. i found that 19s were the perfect size (IMO) and it is currently what i have.

but i did see some gs's with 18's and a chubby tire that looked good.
