Lowered and wheels
Thought I'd post a couple of pics of my GS after installing some coilovers and wheels
Coilovers: Tein Flex
Wheels: Carlsson 1/6 Evo - 19x8.5 +40 and 19x10 +45
Tires: Nitto 245/35/19 and 275/30/19
The rear needs to be raised up a tad - but other than that, no issues

nice!!!!!!
Nice selection(platinum series)! I like the drop and agree that you may want to raise the rear just a bit. I have the same car(platinum series millenium silver/black) and recently went with Tein flex coilovers also. Want to drop it a little more as well.
Your car looks good!

thanks!
Never thought I'd go chrome wheels - but I love the big face wheels on the GS
I fell in love with my car again
(except for those damn 3 lights that came on a few hours later
)

ya, more of a "luxurious" look i think
I was hoping it wouldn't come out looking too "ghetto" with the chrome
I think it turned out nicely
I'm in Dallas
