Any pics of a '98-'05 GS with the Spiders?

Ride quality affected much going from a 17" to an 18"?

I ordered the Spyder wheels with my GS430 I paid $1900. I understand they are BBS and the Lexus emblem in the middle can be removed and the BBS put in.

The 18" "G-Spider" wheels are made by BBS? I've never heard that before?

With any wheel/tire upgrade, you will sacrifice a little ride comfort w/some performance going from a 17 to 18. Thinner tire sidewall profile, larger wheel, less cushioning.

Yes from this thread:

Be careful with after market wheels the tire pressure monitoring system may not work with them. Check on other links on this forum for info.

I searched the whole thread and nothing comes up with "BBS". G-Spider....I queried "Spider"
