Default Here is Snow White

I am adding pics of my F-Sport to the line up. I know putting aftermarket wheels on this car is quite controversial. However, I can assure it turns heads and that my GS is a BOSS!

nice... i'm actually not a fan of the multi spoke design on this type of car but she looks good. digging the bef/aft shot. you have very little meat on your tires, obviously you're running 20s and it's a RWD. it looks dropped although i'm going to go out on a limb and say it isn't. you have the flaxen interior that's been a rave here lately. cool...

These look bigger than 20s... I'm assuming they are 22s.

I try not to share any negative thoughts unless they're about my own car, but these are too big for the GS.
In your comparison shot, the GS looks better on the 19s, and thats something that even I don't like to admit. On the 19s, it looks longer and better proportioned.
On the 22s, it looks short and fat.

Its dope that you went 22s, but they just are not the right size wheel for this car. 21s with a lip may just be the perfect size. I have yet to see that though.

So there you have it... I've shared my opinion that you probably don't care about, but sometimes, I just gotta do it.


Cheers

So it begs the question, how does it ride? Vibration due to the lower profile rims and tires? Any rubbing with turns and more than 2 ppl in car??

The ride has not changed much, but the handling is excellent. Other CL members has the same setup and that is what I went with, no rubbing at all.

I totally agree. The wheels look great, but their large size takes away from the beautiful proportions of the car.

Wheel style looks great on the 4GS, IMO. I think they are a little bit on the big side, but it doesn't look bad. I think it needs a kit due to the wheel size and a little bit of lowering to set it off.
