so what wheels are you looking to get next? your walds were definitely unique, not many people here have them i think.

Full face design makes the wheels look bigger.

OP,

Personally i'd keep your Walds on, it looks so much better than any of the F-sports wheels you mentioned.

The ONLY F-sport wheels i'd rock on the 3GS are the ISF wheels.

....to each his own though.

I really liked the Full Face design
the tire specs call for
front 225 45 19
rear 255 35 19

Does anyone know if I can go with more of an aggressive tire profile without compromising -
1. shaving or rolling fenders
2. rubbing tires issues / cutting tire issues
3. speedometer accuracy

Any suggestion recommendations for tire size alternatives for the Full Face design?
front- 19x8
rear- 19x9

thanks,

Ty
