Default Pic Request: GS with Advan RZ-DFs or Volk CE28s 19" aggressive setup

I'm really feeling the new Advan RZ-DF in 19" but wondering how a simple 10-spoke with decent lip would look on a GS300. Too sporty?

I've got a black Gs300 and looking at something like the RZ-DFs in WHITE. I think that would look pretty hot.....Any pictures of something similar? Ie. Work Emotion XD9s, CR KAI, VOLK CE28ns etc etc.

Or if there are other rims like those (10-spoke simple style rims) please lemme know.

Thanks!

Here is an example, but I'd like some better shots and possibly 19s!

White on black is a bit much I think. I have Volk Racing SF Challenges on my car and I've heard mixed reviews from my friends. Some said it looked too sporty for a GS. I like them though. It's semi-aggressive fitment which make them look better. The gunmetal centers help match the the gunmetal housed LS430 retro plus the red/smoke LED tails. If you keep the theme consistent, I think that type of wheel can flow with the look of the car.

Reason why I like white is because they make the rim look bigger then it really is....just by a bit and the contrast is something I like (this is coming from the old drifter style I use to sport back in the day).

Here's my old olddd ride...as you can see, white rims looks A+

I see the contrast that you're talking about. I guess I'm less about contrast. Isn't maintenance on white wheels pretty difficult?

I like your look man the sporty look is great for a gs, especially if your boosted. The vip look is also great but thats more for car that are meant to be build for cruising and shows. A sporty daily driven gs300 like yours is good in my book.

Thanks. I'm not boosted though; just a stock GS400 with a K&N filter and Borla exhaust.
