I'm sorry, my eyes must be tired, I read that you were putting red wheels on a gray GS.

Don't do it, I don't think that looks good on any car, nevertheless a GS. Since you bought the wheel already paint or powdercoat the finish.

My honest opinion, for the love of god don't put red wheels on a GS!

The graphite gray pearl is a beautiful color and pretty rare on the GS , silver with a polished lip would look great with that color IMHO.

that's just overkill, please don't do it. funny thing is i just saw a graphite gray peal is300 with red wheels. the look just doesn't belong to our cars. however it is your car and you should do what you like. but if you ask for our opinions we will give you our true opinions. don't do it
