Default 19" Wheels suggestions for my 3GS

Hey CL Members i finally sold my HR-3s and now i am looking for some new wheels and wanted suggestions from members on here who have 19" wheels on their 3GS and specs of the wheels so that i can get a better idea of how wide i can go in the front and in the rear. i want to go wide and have a little stance on my car. I was thinking about going with 19x10.5 all the way round. Also i was thinking about the Varrestoen E 222 or the Linea Corse Dyna also considering other wheels but would like to see some members on here with their setup.

Thank You,
1SloGS.

Step lip 19"s (Work, SSR, etc) would be my recommendation!

It all depends on the look you are going for.

But if I had to choose out of those two the first one I guess.

It depends on the offset. There's a guy with some Vossens and he has 10.5 all around.

Its for an AWD and i know people say dont go with staggered setup and stuff but many on here have done staggered on an AWD and nothing is gone wrong so yeah and i could go with 9.5 in the front and 10.5 in the rear or 8.5 in the front and 10 in the rear.

I think the Varrestoens have like an offset of 22 and the Dyna's have like 35 to 40 i think.

LOL>.true.

But I rarely see any 3GS's in the same spot or area. I only see about 2 or 3 3GS/s a week. I live in San Diego and they're usually stock. Maybe you'll see more if you got to a Lexus event.

To OP, stick with Work Wheels if you like the T1S look.
