Default my 96' GS300 with 06' is250 rims

just installed these, since the tires are low pro compared to my stock wheels they make a huge wheel gap.

Slam it, that will close the gap and make those rims look bigger.

I agree, slam it, get some bigger tires for it and your car will look like its an 02.

P.s. I like the color, don't see too many of those

It would look like it was made for offroad..lol. Dont worry, our cars can take a little offroadin as I have found out tonite. Doing donuts in a grass field is fun, just a little dew on the grass and you have yourself the perfect drifting place, if you dont want to mess your tires up.

wheels r nice but that wheel gap has got to go -Eibach or Tanabe springs will do the job with very little loss in ride quality

do a search and you'll see that people who have either of those installed r happy with the results
