Default Matte Black/Dark Color Rims

Hi,

Noob...wondering are there any 3GS with Matte Black/Dark Color Rims?

I drive a lot so maintaining rims with polish lips isn't the easiest for me.

Thanx

Kenstylegs,

when i use to have megan coilover with 3 in drop. i have no issue with rubbing fender. just simply use the fender roller to roll. but now with air runner, i have rise a little higher than before, cuz it's not stiff as coil spring. i don't rise to stock height unless is my girlfriend or my mom wants to drive my gs.

welcome to clublexus.

that's either painted or vinyl roof. i don't have a good figure, but i think a few hundred should do the trick

those aren't very aggressive offsets, i think 245 and 275 widths are good choices. profile, it's up to you. 35 front and 30 rear and you have more cushion, but it's overspec and might rub a bit if your car is lowered. 30 front and 25 rear are the spec

some people use that setup, but i don't recommend. the profile aren't the same, the front is thicker than rear.

matching setup would be 245/30/20 and 275/25/20, or 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 (overspec)
