Default for those of you who hated my 22s ...

Got some new Michelin Primacy Mxm4 94W's for the stock 17s I had ... installed Wednesday and it rides like brand new. For those of you who didn't see my 22s (https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...lo-wheels.html) ... not many seemed to like them. So here ya go ... I miss the looks I got with the 22s on but I don't miss the terrible handling.

Its your car and your style. just browse around a bit you can put wheels on your GS that compliments its looks but still gives you good handling

lol ... yeah. I have to say, I think it does look pretty good and it drives so much better. It feels like I lost weight lol. I may not get the chance to do much to it anytime soon but some small things would be replacing the fender guard thingies that I cut out to squeeze those 22s in. It looks kind of ragged without them. Thanks for all the compliments though ... the 22s will be on Craigslist soon!
