TE-37s dont belong on a GS, they belong on a IS

Most people here only know Bling wheels. TE37's are nice assuming your car looks like that track car. With the luxury look of the GS, I dunno about TE37's ???

this rim while it's hot, just looks so much better on like a Z or something, just doesn't look right on the GS

Here's an old thread I found from 3 years ago! Note the date below

You can even see my old IS300 in the background lol.

Not TE37's but LE37T (similar, but with a silver machined lip). These are photos I took 3 year ago when the 3GS first came out in 2005. Photos were of a new GS300 at Longo Lexus. It was the first modified 3GS at that time. Rominl was also there that day now that I recall! LOL

I didn't have time to get all the stats for the wheel/tire setup. But the rear wheels are 19x9.5 +45 offset 5x114.3. The rears were wrapped w/Toyo T1-S 275/30YR19 tires.

IMHO needs to be lowered.

^ Interesting - looks like they painted the tpms sensors to match the rims. I didn't know Volks/Rays were tpms compatible, Gram lights aren't. Too bad you didn't take a pic of the dealer add-on sheet for the retail price of this 19" rim/tire setup. . .

I think I did but was asked not to publish. If I recall correctly it was a $4 or 5k premium.

Can anyone with mad photshop skills place silver 19" TE37's on a lowered Blue 3GS?

I also think that pic above looks odd because the rear tire is a smaller profile. If it was 245/35 all around on an 8.5 rim, and lowered, it would look balanced.

Or maybe I am wishful...
