Definitely go with 20" CV3's! Like Diego said, if you go with those specs, you won't have any issues! They just fill out the fenders perfectly and look good!



I know there's a member on here, an AWD model if I'm correct, on 19" Vossens, I'll have to see if I can find the picture(s) to show you how the 19's looked on the 3GS

Here is the one I mentioned on 19 VVS-083's, a different wheel, but you can get an idea of the look and see his wheel/tire specs.

Vossen 083 - 19x8.5 235/35 and 19x10 275/30 with +32mm offset in the front / +38mm in the rear



So as you can see, with the right sized tires the 19's look just as good, and depending on if you want to lower your car a lot or a little, the 19's will allow you to go lower.

Attachment 283302Hello guys.
I need some of your opinion on choosing wheels.
which one you guys like better?
I know I have pick one that I like but having hard time making decision.
If I go with stance, i get to save about 400 dollars.

VOSSEN OR STANCE?

Both Concave wheels.

19 inches OR 20 inches?

Please advise and help me making decision

1 picture: STANCE WHEEL
2 picture: VOSSEN WHEEL
3 picture: picture of My GS350 with 17iches wheel (Granite Mica)
If U like the 5 spoke pattern, I would say the Stance wheels in a 20", only becuase they still have a small lip under the spoke, where the Vossen doesn't... Gives a whole different dimension to the look of a concave wheel!!! Saw these staggered on a Mercedes- man they were brilliant on a Luxury car!
I wanted these after I saw them!!!
For what it's worth- I say 20" Stance 5 spoke wheels, staggered! U can't go wrong!

They offered me 2300 with shipping and handle. is it right price for these wheels?
Don't want to buy used one.
My car is AWD so better not go with staggered set right? or don't matter?
Thank again!
I'm AWD with concave 20 X 9's all the way around- kinda wish I had staggered. If I had it to do again, I probably would!
Do U really need to avoid it??? No... should U do it??? Just depends on the style U're looking for!!!!

Good luck!

Hey whats up my names Paul im the local Rep for Need 4 Speed Motors/

I recommend going with 20" Vossen CV3 they would fill the car up perfectly

here's a example of of a GS 450h on 20x9 & 20x10 Vossen CV3 in Matte Graphite

Feel free to PM or email me at Paul@need4speedmotors.com if you have any questions for fitment or if you would like more photos of the fitment.
