gs w/ sc430 18's
 
1 Attachment(s)
having just bought my new gs400 w/ stock 16's, i needed a low priced upgrade on the wheels....i know i'm not the first to do it, but i think these sc430's w/ newer styled center caps do the trick just fine....total price on the wheels you ask? $280 including shipping used on ebay....they aren't perfect but they aren't bent.......i wrapped them in fuzion ZRI 245 40r18's....

a set of 01 taillights and some tint make this (now 2nd owner vehicle) look like she always deserved to look.

Yo, not bad bro! I was personally thinking of slapping on some of the RX330 18" chrome rims. Kind of look like the new GS430 rims, but at 1/4 the price. :p
But those SC430 rims for $280 shipped! Thats a hell of a deal and they look good on the GS! :thumbup:

thats pretty nice! $280 for the newer design rims are a great deal. i bought my sc430 rims on ebay for $100 a while back, but those were the older design plates. congrats!

at least its not the other sc430 wheels, they look horrible on a gs. These look pretty darn good. :thumbup:

i appreciate it....what do u think of the bra? i live in an area where there's lots of road dirt due to construction and it is saving the front from nicks....but what about looks?

IMO, do away with the bra. it will dis-color ur paint. how do i know?? i had one before (on another car) and it discolored the paint after a few months. also, im not really a fan of that look. but thats just me :D

I think the centerbore on the RX wheels is different...may wanna get that confirmed before you buy them.

To be honest - I think bra's look terrible :sad: I would prefer my car to look good and have to respray the front every 2+ years than drive around with an ugly bra on it. Your cars front is too sexy to cover it up.

Now if you had a hot-ass model sitting there, would you want her to wear a bra or go nekkid ;) Exactly, now take it off
