Lemme see some pics!
Haha... yah you know me and the builds - just pop it out and let 'em talk. although this one I will start posting up here as soon as I get started... which is TODAY! Just not sure if it should go in the general or performance section of the forums?

nice, can't wait to see what you got planned. I'm still trying to figure out wheel choice.. Its not easy on this car.
it's nice to not have to care about them that much. I do want 19s though...
the thing with 18s (or any wheels I guess) is that wheels that don't have the spoke go all the way to the rim make them smaller than the wheels that do have spokes go all the way (ie: BBS LM...especially w/ step lip)

What rims are these?? Best looking 18s I've yet to see...

as someone said above, G35 coupe 18"s. Dirt cheap and clears Supra calipers .

^^^ this is the cleanest looking one out of all that's been posted so far. It might be the close up pic that make it look bigger than an 18 but it's probably the design. The spokes extending all the way to the end of the wheel.
The 18's do look a little small for the GS so I think to achieve the look of "rolling hard on 18"s" with aftermarket wheels you need to be dumped. But from the looks of it, people who have the 18's are geared more for the comfort aspect. So I guess dumping the car to the ground is out the window.
Lowered on Coilovers. . . Riding on 18" HRE with 245/40/18 front and 295/35/18 rear
This setup in my opinion is the best I've seen for 18's.... I am currently riding on 20x8.5 and 20x10 with 245/35/20 and 285/30/20 which sit perfectly flush with my fenders... But I want to drop down to 18 simply because of the fact that 20's slow me down... big time... I want to stay with the wide wheel setup while staying within spec of the stock height of the 17's.... I eventually plan on going with Volk Racing GTS 18x9.5 and 18x11 which will sit perfectly flush with the fenders. I also plan on doing the Megan racing coilovers to achieve a one finger gap all the way around... Once I accomplish this setup I am sure that everyone will have a different view of 18's... Here's the link to my current setup...

HONESTLY..... offset on the black gs is horrible... nice wheel design for a sports inspired gs.. get spacers! drop is perrrrfect tho.... i just put my teins on and want to go with 19's.... 18s just arent cuttin it anymore...
also wheel specs on mine are 18x9 +26 225/40/18 and 18x10 +26 235/40/18.... it sits hellaflush but i want more so im going to pick up some 5mm wheel spacers to get it down to a +21offset and then it will be sexxxayyyyy...
also an 18x11 is killer.... u better go with a high offset to pull that off... like 42 LOL.
.
sick i never really even considered 18's but this is FTW
