Default 19" wheels

I've got a set of 19" rims running 245 x 35 x19" on my current SC400. do you think these rims would look good on the SC430?

I think it has a +38mm offset but I can't remember as I purchase these rims along time ago.

Can someone photoshop them on a silver SC430? I don't have enough room or floor jacks to lift both cars off the ground to swap rims.

Here's a hack photoshop job; Not silver, but I think they look pretty good on my black car.

Default silver one...

Ok, I found a similar set on another member's silver car... I am also shopping for new wheels and I liked your setup (ms painted) on my car. I would absolutely swap them. I hope this helps.

I added a similar looking rim about a year ago. I have received many compliments so I don't think you can go wrong with that look. I used the Verde Kaos V55 rims and have had no problems with bent wheels or vibration.

I really love this wheel! My 2nd favorite. You can't go wrong with this style of rim!

My car is black (I think yours is too) so I would have gotten it polished black with the lip in chrome.

Poqman, Do you have pics of the Verde wheels on your SC? What size are they? I'm considering replacing my 20' wheels to get a better ride.

Thanks, John

Solman, Here's a picture of the Verde's. I stayed with the OEM size, 18x8.5 and selected the hyper-silver finish rather than chrome for the Egyptian Sand color.
