Default Genesis wheels on GS300

Hey guys, thought I'd share some pics of my gs300. I've seen a few IS's with the Hyundai Genesis 19 inch wheels and looked pretty good, and I happened upon a set for a really, REALLY good deal so I figured I'd put them on my gs! (and with a little modification, the lexus center caps from my oem wheels will fit!)

don't worry, gonna lower it eventually, but my other car has sucked all the money out of my wallet, lol!

Any thoughts on the best way to lower it without losing too much of the comfortable ride are gladly welcome! Any thoughts on bags?? any air systems keep a nice ride?

They kinda remind me of the is250 wheels, but it looks good but lowered would be better

Its not hate. You posted a pic(s), its the internet, you will get positive and negative feedback.

I was being nice about it quite frankly. There will be a bridge built from America to the Nurburgring before I put Hyundai wheels on my Lexus.
