Ok guys I am totally undecided and would like to turn to my fellow CL members in helping me make a decision.Now that gettins are back I am debating whether to go with the diamond polish and polished lip or chrome.As some of you know I have a gold first gen gs300 and can't decide which finish to go with.I am going with a stagged 19 or 20 (haven't decided either) but the finish is what I'm having trouble deciding on.
If you could let me know you think and please post your reason.If you need a visual heres a pic of my car,

Chrome is alot more cash.

I think I'd go with silver on your car

Whatever size that wheel is in your gallery (i'd assume 20"), I'd go one size down. They look too big.

edit 1 - After staring at the fullsize pic of your car, I dont think those wheels you have on flow at all. Too big, chrome doesnt go well with that color, and the look of the wheel. Its a nice wheel (Maido? WORK?), just not on your car.

edit 2 - Have you thought about going with the Glanzen EV? They look great on the 1st gen GS. sorry the pics are so bad

I agree , I am not realing feeling the maido on my car, thats why I want the gettins. and I'm starting to feel the 19's on my car.Btw-I will be going lower with the new wheels.I am trying to acheive a look that is not too racey, but still classy. Come on guys keep the suggestions coming.Hey ED where you at??

I think your car would look nice with chrome, its a smooth light color and with the right type of wheel it would look great! I think some may think your wheels look too big simply because its not very low, if it were lowered, I'm quite sure the wheels would look different!

To be honest, with that color you can go either way and still look nice, I just like chrome!

I really like the blades on the gettins, are those 19,s or 20 on that black gs?They look like 20's

They don't come in 20

Johnee, I think if your wheels were staggered and your car was lower, you would like it more, have a photoshop done and see if you like it!

I was wondering where you were at.I feel you on I could go either way and thats exactly the problem I'm having, I CAN'T DECIDE!!! I have always been on chrome and this would be the first time when I'm considering something different.I know your a fan of chrome and so am I but the more I look at the finish the more I like it.I need some suggestions..

mr who

I'm also a huge fan of chrome. I have chrome...but my car is black. I think you have to go with what looks best with your color. If I had your color car I'd go with a silver polish or black chrome.

When I first got my wheels I really liked them and the min. I put them on I didn't, to me they just didn't look right.I know my car isn't that low but I have had other wheels on and they would flow with the car ,The style of the wheel is very important.For me to buy 2 rear staggerd wheels to match would not be smart dollar wise when I could just sell my wheels and buy the gettins out right already set-up as a stagged set and like I said I am not really feeling my maidos on my car very much anyways.And yes coilovers will be going on as soon as the wheels do..Can you say dropped

D2-AUTOSPORT

Yeah man, I hear ya the only part of the wheel that I dont like is the part where the spokes kinda connect, nothing major though!

Like you said man, it would bother forever so get what you really like, I would like to see the strong spoke of the Gettin on a first Gen!
