Default 18" and 19" rims

I'm having a difficult time trying to find a classy 18"/19" rim. I sell Real Estate and don't want to sacrifice to much ride. As it stands now I've dropped it down with Eibach's to give it the look. Now I want to give it the right finishing touches.

I would really like something with some nice wide lips. Pics and suggestions would be appreciated!

Welcome to Clublex. Try the gallery to see all sorts or wheels on Lexus rides.

Thanks for the welcoming (and posting in correct spot) guys!

I've had my red? 98 gs400 for about a year and am slowly modifying when I can hide a check or three. Nothing cheep about these cars and the same can be said for aftermarket parts. I live in the Okanagan Valley in Canada where aftermarket parts are non existent so I use the net for selection & buying.

As it stands I've just added an LSortline front spoiler, roof spoiler & grill. Dropped it down an 1" with eibach's and put the stock grill back in cuz I didn't like the looks of the LSportline grill (maybe to much change at once?)Anyone lookin for a deal/trade on a painted grill? Future improvements will include LSportline side skirts & rims.

Anyways I've checked out many galleries and the tirerack but my taste is to expensive. The one's I really like are HRE 540's & 544's, Dronell, Work Termist & Zauber. Love the offsets as well as the wide lips. Why is it all the good things in life cost so much?

So now you got an idea as far as my taste any suggestions?

One of the HARDEST red GSs. There are a couple others on here but red is rare.

I stand corrected. It's Cinnabar! ( Who comes up with this stuff?) And your right! All I see is White, Silver & Black on most of the lex's. It doesn't help in choosing rims cuz it 's kinda hard to invision them on Cinnabar!

I still remember the first GS400 I saw was in Blue and I had to drive around the block to catch up with it so that I could follow it for the next 10 minutes to get a good look at it (I think the owner thought I was a stalker but it was worth it........18 months hard time. Just kidding). Anyways the Blue is gorgeous!
