They are all good looking quality rims, which in any case looks better when lowered. It's really just a matter of personal preference. Once you get a set, after about a month you'll want a different pair; just like everything else in life.

These are lowered but they would still set your GS much better than stock even if your car is not lowered.

Check out the cv5 and cv7 before you buy. Those look sweet but you'll have to wait a bit. The cv5 kinda looks like the Audi wheel

I think the VVS 083 looked the best if you were not to lower your car, all the rest have a better effect being lowered.

they are all great looking rims, but i like the CV3s. lower the car at least an 1", which should be OK even for Jersey.

car color is silver.....i was looking at maybe sage rca's to lower the car 20 mm...but i dont know how that looks with stock suspension. The other thing is i dont think they make the rca's for the rear...so it would only lower the car in the front i believe
