They look a little too aggressive for a Lexus. IMO a Lexus is a classy car, not a race car, But Clint never listens to me, Thats why his 2 Lexii made ~800hp each

I really like the look of Moda R6s. Clean. Simple. Inexpesive.

The Modas look cheap. They look like larger gs/is wheels.

ANYWAY, back to the question about the SSRs, , I think they look great Steve. SSR is clearly putting VOLK in their crosshairs.

Those SSR's are NICE! Definitely more a racer look but they would look good on a SC or IS...

Yes, I'm resurrecting an old thread...it's the only thread that seems relevent to my query.

I've been thinking of a set of SSR SP1's in black for my black GS4. I can't find any GSs with these wheels. Seems that if Carson Toyota likes the match, I can't be too wrong myself. And I've seen these on a few cars recenly in SuperStreet mag.

Anyone have pics of a 2nd gen GS (black onyx) with SSR Professor SP1's?? The pic I get from the Tire Rack doesn't do it justice IMHO.

I'd like to know more about the construction. Are they full forged or some casting?

Suggestions...likes or dislikes are welcomed. I'm hoping they still make these for my GS and have room for BBK upgrade.

Thats kinda funny, I placed my order 3 hours ago for my 19" ssr sp1s in black. the rears should be here this week, but my front wont come in until mid july.

BTW: my second gen GS is black and I went with a 19X10.5 +30 and a 19X9 +31

Those are gonna look mean with those offsets. What tire sizes are you going to be running?

Yes, very cool! Who did you order thru? How much, if you don't mind me asking? I won't be able to order a set until around August. Post up some pics after the install.

went through tirerack and payed 435 each. front and rears were the same price. But that was through wholesale.

Regular prices are $449 each for the 10.5s and $484 for the 9s.

They told me that the rears were cheaper because they are trying to move them out and wont be getting anymore.

My rear should be here this week so I'll take pics then.

Interesting that the vendor says they won't clear BBK. Is this only on a 2nd gen GS? I've seen other cars with these and have BBK.
