I have to agree with them. The look of lipped wheels on our cars is perfect. But if these match the overall look you are going for I say do it.

That said those wheels look a little too much like the GMC Denali wheels for me.

To me those look like they belong on a smaller car; the 6 thin spoke thing has never done it for me on a bigger body car. Plus it looks like they are being discontinued, that's something to consider. My wheels are discontinued and it's a little nerve-racking to know I can't buy a replacement if needed, I'd have to hope it can be repaired.

None of that really matters if you like them though, we all have different opinions and tastes so if you're feeling them go for it!

You dont necessarily need a wheel with lip for our cars its just more commonly done. There are tons of nice flat faced wheels. But i do have to agree with some of the rest of the people here in saying those wheels may not fit the look of a gs too well.. Unless you are going more of a sporty look and not so much a luxury look. But the choice is up to you.. Good luck
