i have owned an 01 gs300 since new. bone stock. but ive kept it extremely clean. anyways, since its time for timing belts and such. decided to rebuild the motor.( basically the supra set up.) just started researching, then found this site. wow! love at first site when i came across the V.I.P. style.( first pics were of," gatos'' ride.) blew me away.
now, along w/ the engine rebuild, i have to go for the v.i.p. look...
could you guys advise me on if, 19" x 9 +30 fronts 2.25" lip and 19" x 10 +30 rears 3.25" lip, would be a good choice. and what tire size would be optimal?
gonna drive it daily. and suggestions on a suspension set up.
mr. gato, do you drive your car alot? if so, your stance seemed flawless. would appreciate any tips and advice.

thanks in advance,

Same sizes but with 15-20mm offset front and 10-15mm offset rear. You will be golden. Oh and your isht is gonna have to be low!

 

Welcome and im love your Enthusiusim and its Vipstyle...
much luck to you on ur swapp

 

Excellent another Vip style enthusiast.. Excellent ...

If you are having a Outrage offset ask also V8-aristo ... his offsets ...

I have pretty weak offsets so I will in turn later have to buy anoter set of wheels ...


Gato is running Tein Ha's for his coil over set up .... but not sure of his offset ...



GL with the motor too ...

 

thanks for the info, pxrlex. much appreciated. by the way what offsets are u currently running? and what are u going to change too?
welcomes appreciated nyaristo. nice 1st gen.

 

whats up gs eddy....

19x10+30 is what I have.....(without spacers) those specs for the rear actually look pretty aggressive......but only sittin up kinda high...lol...well, high for vipstyle.

but if you wanna be low and wide, nothing wrong with going with 15mm spacers all around.... that would put you close to my specs...

I think you'll be happy with a 225/35/19 for the 9 and 245/34/19 for the 10

I run 235's on a 10 but am considering going 245 cause I believe it makes appear a little wider and fuller. still a mild stretch.

remember if your gonna run those 15mm all around you must be tucking front and rear...other wise you'll stick out...

and yes I drive wayyy too much

 

thanks, gato. the info is just what i was lookin for. oh, by the way. your ride is ***** f*kin dope. the help is greatly appreciated.

 

are u running +30 on the fronts too? and are u satisfied w/ the tein ha's.
thanx again.

 

very happy with tein.

front is 19x9+18 with a 5mm makes it +13 going another 5 or 10 though

rear is x10+30 with a 15mm makes it +15 and going another 10 soon

 

I have the Normal Gs specs ... 38 front and 43 rear ... love the fact I can Land my car in a parking lot to park ... but couldn't hurt to get some spacers


Looking in to finding some rims that will work with a Fattie lip ... nothing as far as plans ... getting a kit REAL soon ... so deciding on that first !

 

you freakin vip guy's are cool as hell. the info has helped alot. planning on buying a set of rays a/x lk. from ucf20. he's been very cool as well. what y'all think.

 

post a pic up for us to take a look
