Default PICS: Out with the GTC - In with the MS1

My previous rims, Volk Racing GT-C, which have found a new happy home on slimjim's ride.

I'm now rolling on SSR MS1:

19x9.5+25 235/35
19x10.5+18 265/30

I like the old and new set up, the gold wheels gives it a sportier look to the GS more aggressive offset

I like the look. Maybe its the lighting or my PC but they look more mustard colored than gold. Still looks more original than the standard 5 spoke look you had before.

Looks good, but I think the GT-C's in gold with your Pearl White beauty would have looked better, but I'm biased, heheh. Love how your ride sits, and the mixed and matched kit and wing are top notch!!!
