Default GS430 wheel recommendations

Hi Everyone...new here. I was looking for recommendations on 19" wheels for my recently purchased 2001 GS 430. Looking for conservative setup, staggered preferred. Don't want to modify car to accomodate a new wheel....This is my daily driver and would be driven in 4 seasons. Any pictures of recommendations would be great. retailers also would be great? Thx

MY suggestion is find something that YOU like rather than follow what everyone else does on here. SO many cars on here that look exactly alike because of this very question

BTW, Welcome to CL

I'm in the same boat as you at the moment.

I have a daily driver GS430 that's lowered an inch in Tanabe springs. I'm looking for aftermarket wheels that will set the car off but since it's a daily driver, I absolutely can't go so aggressive with the offsets like so many of the aftermarket wheels you see on this site.

I'm not sure what your budget is, but you can start with Varrstoen and move up from there. Varrstoen's are generally considered to be budget replica wheels, but they look good on our cars.

I've heard that they are also coming out with more "street" friendly offsets later this year which I am waiting for.
