What's up my first Gen. family?

I'm thinking about putting SC430's shoes on my ride. I found a chrome set on ebay
and I'm thinking about buying them. Below is a pick of how it would look like (courtesy of
GSTrance-the man with photoshop).

Let me know what do you think about the idea.
I hate the rims on the SC but I think they will look off the hook on the GS.
So let me know.

Here's the chop:


Thanks for your input, guys.
Dan.

Default Hmmm...

Doesn't look too bad, it'd look much better if the car were dropped as well!

Thanks a lot, bro.
Yeah, I know I'll have to drop it too.
One thing at a time, you know.

What everyone else thinks???

Those rims look pretty nice on your car, go for it if you are getting a good deal.

I agree with Jmai and Indypwr, I too do not like the rims. I don't even think they look good on a Sc 430...

I'm not all that fond of it just because I think that wheel fits the SC430 so well. Here's my idea sine we have the same color car. How do you guys think the BBS rs-gt would look on the 1st gen in grey? I tried to to a photoshop but it looked like crap.

Thanks a lot, guys for all the input.
Jmai, that 1/2 drop looks off the hook. Thanks for the chop, bro.
I hate the way those wheels look on the SC430s. But I like the way
it looks on my car. I think I'll buy them, now I'm just looking for those
wheels in chrome.
Once again thanks a lot, guys.
Dan.
P.S. and yes, I wil drop the car, don't worry I'm not gonna ride in a truck.
