Thanks bro, appreciate that. I'd vote for the S22's in silver, if you want a "less bling" look

Actually, you can get just as low on 20s with 235/30-20 + 275/25-20...
same overall diameter as 235/35-19 + 275/30-20.

Proportionally, I prefer the look of 20s on the GS to 19s... the 20s fill-up the
wheel wells side-to-side better than the 19s which is important if you're
slamming the car. Frankly, my 20s are starting to look small...

Like I always say: "twenties are the new nineteens."

I noticed that your handle is VIPLexus... are you going for a VIP look?
If so, the Sevas probably gets you closest to that look (but it's not
particularly VIP-looking).

Fitment is a big deal to me and would have a large influence on my
personal choice in wheels. Again, I think the Sevas wins here (although
I don't specifically know the offsets).

Bbs Lm.....
None of the BBS forged stuff can be had for his budget of $2K.
Besides, their Lexus fitments blow! (sorry, but it's true).

I second the notion of consulting with D2 Autosport on wheels!

So prolly 30 offsets because I dont want to run spacers.. But definitely wheels are on the checklist next.. Just saving up money.. Will definitely try to do it right the first time and not regret anything...
