yeah those should be able to fit correctly onto your gs well, now we just need a photoshop of it

I noticed in the CL fitment guide that 18x9+35 is considered "aggressive"Is that only for the front or will that setup be fine on the rear?..Will these be flush with the wheel well.Also plan on going BBk..With these measurement what brake kit would be compatible.

And yeah the photoshop would be cool..Silver GS..Who got photoshop skillz??

Does this price of $1400 include tires?

Stefwilli

I have the same type of wheel for you but with more lip. The wheel I'm reffering to is
Status Alloy wheel 278
18x8.5 and 18x9.5
Hyper Black with machined lip
with your original tire setup
For about the same price

Yes that price includes tires.Right now Im still on the OEM 17's..But you have my attention...
Are these new,and where in NY are you..We should speak>>

Stefwilli

No these are wheels that we carry, we dont sell used wheels.
To answer your question yes our prices include tires mounted and balance and we ship anywhere. You can PM me or email me stefan@d2autosport.com.

D2-Autosport is an official vendor on here and based on feedback from a lot of CL members, he is just great to deal with.

If I were you, I would go with a Forged setup (light and very strong) in a minimum 19 inch size. I have 18's on my car (you saw my car at LexFest) and at the front they look good, but in the back they look small. There is more of the "car" at the back on top of the wheels and that makes them look small. Ofcourse since my wheels have rivets, the length of the spokes is shorter and that also adds visually to the "smallness" of the wheels. Just my 2 cents!

they will fit on the car no problem, very conservative, you are good. just that 9 in the rear that's kinda weak
