Like ACleanSC4 stated above, get the SL!!

switch rims if you're bored. No need to have 2 sets of the same rims. I kinda want to sell my Gettins too!

I will fly to Washington and pimp slap your butt if you change the Gettins for those wheels. Those particular works don't look that good to me. They look alright but much better on a big sedan like the GS. Not for a luxury sport coupe. Yes, I feel really strongly about this and don't care if I offend anyone. That's how much I think of the Gettins, they are hot. They are sport luxury. I have always wondered what others see in this work wheel. It just looks so....well, I have said enough. It's my opinion and I'm sticking to it.

Thank you all for good informative inputs...
At this point I really don't know what to do... I've spent so much $$$ thus far on my GS and now my SC, my evil side telling me to just get the Work wheels and my other side is telling me that I already spent $$$ on turbo kit and still need to reserve some money for body kit/paint and should wait.

reggiek: thanks for your concern even if I get the Work SL I'll probably keep the Gettins, Im too attached to them.

2jzsc3 your SC look spectacular....

I would have graduated to a larger rim but didn't want the scraping with my lowered 1" suspension.. My car will not take larger rims.... Did you know that smaller diameter rims and tires will give you a faster racing time... Believe it or not but there is a difference between racing 15" rims on lower profile tires then with 20" rims with low profile tires... Just ask the racing experts..bling bling baby...... We all share different interests and goals and my rims and tires look much better on my SC in real life rather then those sorry pictures that don't show the D/S rotors and calipers....
