Some new pics.. be honest.
RTCamaroSS,
glad to see that you're local. I'm up in your neck of the woods often by Starbucks off Automall.
I like your GS. As far as the OEM SC430 rims, they look good on any car except the SC430 in which they came from. They do look a little more fit on an ES and flows better w/ that particular smaller frame car. For GS's that I've seen, either the 5 spoke, multi-spoke or mesh design w/ a staggered set-up, chrome/polish/brushed aluminum colored rims would provide a more aggresive look to the overall bulk of the car. Plus, it will show off the nice caliper in the background of the wheels.
Your set-up is clean and simple and you can't go wrong w/ that.
But for your personal taste, w/ the drop, I believe you can get away w/ this clean look.
hope to see you at EOS.

Thanks everyone for the honest replies, trust me, its much appreciated! For now, until i can afford to put on a set of staggered 19's, this is what ill be keeping on the car. They undoubtably look better than the stock rashed 17's, so im happy about that... i agree that they dont exactly fit perfectly, and the car could certainly look better with different wheels. But this is the best i can do with what i have.. unfortunately, i simply cant justify a couple thousand for a set of wheels and tires with a mortgage and planning a wedding. So this is what im stuck with
Mark... if you still have those 19's... maybe we can work something out. Shoot me another PM with a last ditch offer
As far as these wheels go... as i mentioned earlier, i considered painting the covers body color or maybe black... any thoughts on that? or maybe someone can photoshop it for me? Thanks everyone!
Teeman... im hoping to make the EOS meet... so maybe ill meet all you guys, finally.

BTW, nice exhaust. Looks kinda familiar

lol...I agree.. it doesnt look bad.. but not good either.. better than the stock 17's in my eyes and nothing more.
A nice clean loon. Hey, you can't beat free. I have never been a fan of those wheels as they always looked kinda off to me. Just glad that you didn't stick the pie plates on them and the rivets definately need to go. Your car pulls off the look pretty well and with a drop, I think it would look even better.
