Default Avant Garde M310 Dolphin Grey 18's staggered on GS350 RWD

***Warning! No VIP, stance, stretched, or hellaflush content!***

Avant Garde M310 Dolphin Grey
18x8.5 front 18x9.5 concave rear
Tires: 245/40/18 and 255/40/18 (Bridgestone Serenity Plus front and Yokohama YK580 rear, had to get new tires for wider rear. Apparently YK580 latest Yokohama all season tire, comfortable and quiet like Serenity Plus.)
Stock height on GS350 RWD
Pros: Fit and finish. Offsets perfect for the car. Price.
Cons: Expecting gunmetal color but appears more matte black in most light conditions. This is my daily and not in VIP or hellaflush scene. Posting pics for those that are interested in getting 18's on stock height.










What it replaced:

Wow, I didn't think they looked that good on a GS. I had them on my M5 in 20"

Ride and comfort the same. Handling tiny bit better due to slightly wider rear rim/tire. Offset fills up wells nice for stock height. I'm running Bridgestone Serenity Plus up front and Yokahama YK580. Both all season tires made for comfort and less noise.

I know right? Minimal flaws on his car.... Hopefully I can reach that level soon, all the highway runs over time has started to show itself already for me.

Wow, that actually looks really good.

If I'm nitpicking... I'd get Lexus center caps made, or try to fit the ISF caps... otherwise its a really good fit for the car!
