Can anyone post pics of these on a white 2GS?
I have these from my Cinnabar GS, but currently Im sitting on Chrome 17's

Im not sure which ones I should keep. I love how the Chrome 17s look but I would like to see how these look on a white GS to see if it helps me make up my mind.

I like the stance. Do you have spacers? Any rubbing issues?

Mahalo!

I think silver looks better with the 3GS wheels.

Thanks. I'm on Tein CS v2 set at about 1.5 finger gap all around. I also have 15mm spacers up front and 20mm spacers in the rear. Here are some photos with the spacers installed and the wheels now painted Gray Steel Pearl with IS-F center caps.

I love those wheels also...very classy. What's the going price for a set in VG condition, used? I'm not in any rush but I might start looking.

thanks for that pic, I needed that to see how my car would look with em. But the only thing is that I dont have a drop or the same spoiler.

Im thinking if I should sell my 3GS rims or my Chrome factory 17's its a tough decision. If my 3GS rims were chrome, it woulda been a no brainer. but now I'm stuck.
