Hey everyone!!

Hey gsintensive, the wheels on your car are absolutely georgeous!!!

I want to get wheels like those on my car!! Have to save up first.....

What is the tire wall size on your tires? 35 or 30? What wheels did you have before that? Compared to the stock 17 inch wheels, how much did the ride comfort deteriorate? I am considering buying those rims in 19 inch, but am concerned in the deterioration in ride comfort and overall increased weight (thereby affecting handling), so might be looking in to 18's instead.

Please post some closeup's of the your rims - side and angle. I want to see those lips!!!

ray wtf are u in aIM, can't find u anywhere >< talk to me online when u on O_O

The tires size, start with front. 245/35/20, back 275/30/20

Since this is 20''s so the fender will rub a little when u have 4~5 people in ur car if you do no intend to roll it. Again, thx for the kind words, ^_^ damn I still love CL.

by the way, 18'' is good choice IF you do not wanna compromise ANY ride comfort. But u will need to lower your car a lot more to do to deserved well gap. Personally I believe GS deserve 19''s at least .

I think it looks good on the dark GS colors (green, blue, and black).

Ditto. You can see a couple of mine at my site. I helped DaveGS4 do his a couple months ago, and Black really shows them well IMO.
