What do you all think?

This is my SC4 with 1st Gen. GS3 rims.

This is my SC4 with stock rims.

https://www.clublexus.com/gallery/sh...t=1&thecat=500

They're both 16 inch rims but the GS3 rims may look smaller because the tires are 225/60/16s instead of the 225/55/16s on my stock rims.

The funny thing is, at 16x7.5, the GS3 rims are actually wider than the stock ones, which are only 16x7.


Comments?

how much did you pay for these? to give you a honest opinon.. i think you should have gotten different rims. they look a bit old. i actually like your stock rims more. sorry not trying to flame you or anything. just giving you my thoughts on the rims.

Really?

I didn't want to buy aftermarket rims because I wanted to stay stock.

I bought them from redbarron for $300.

I like these better because my stock rims are a PITA to clean/maintain.

IMO, can't stand the big bubble gum tires and the GS wheel doesn't do the SC justice... just my 2 cents

Baby ///M3

Yeap, I will change the tires to 222/55/16s ones if I can later.

Actually, if you look closely these GS rims are very similar to the 95-96 SC rims. Plus they're wider than my stock SC rims (7.5 versus 7) so I don't consider these rims a downgrade (if that's what you're implying).

It's pretty shocking that those of you who responded actually like my old rims better. I definitely like these GS a lot better than my old ones.

Oh well..
