Default Enkei NT03+M on 2G GS

How do you think these will look? I can get a great deal on a staggered set from work. 18x8.5 +38 and 18x9.5 +40. I know fitment may suck but opinions are welcome.

hmm doesnt look too bad IMO. tho 18" on a GS is a little small but not bad.

btw those specs menstioned are REALLY conservative. you will be at sunken battle ship mode.

I checked the website and they have a 18x10.5 +30 and 18x9.5 +27 or 18x9.5 +40. Does anyone know if any of these other sizes will fit any better than the above mentioned conservative offsets?

I have thought about the RPF1 on the GS before. I think it would look nice. Go with the SBC RPF1.

i would go 18x9.5+27 front and 10.5+30 for the rear.
in the prf01 in the 19" you can get 9+18 or 9.5+22 for the front and 10+22 for the rear

I think with the correct fitment they will look really good. You know, different even. Besides, they are pretty light too.

I think I'm gonna just buy the 18x10.5 +30s and test fit 'em. We have a set in stock at another store. I'll let you guys know what happens when I get them.
