I have a chance to get another gs a gold one and just wanted to see what wheels would look best, and what other people have done to theirs.

Yeah I have seen one with crome it looked good. I was thinking of going with a color matched wheel with a crome lip or a bronze wheel with a crome lip. I really want to see if anyone has those type of wheels so I can get an idea of how it would look

Yeah it's strange that I seen all colored Lexus with gold rims accept the gold Lexus. I haven't seen that yet. But you can be the first one to post up pictures with the gold Lex n gold rims.

Cool. The depth of the back wheels look wide. What size are they? I think if you add the gold rims.. it will bring the car out more. Are you thinking about adding a bodykit?

The rears were 285's, I liked the wheels on this car but I like them better on the supra, so that's where they will stay. This car is being sold now though, now I'm driving a white Aristo.

Heres mine. 18x9.5" konig's. I got a set of deep dish 7 spoke rims that look like the racing hart J8's. The center is going to be gold, but im painting the car a white-ish color.

Hopefully some in the spring. Once we get settled into the new place, im going to start ripping it apart for paint, then the motor swap. So hopefully you'll get to see it somewhat complete.

They are only 18x9.5's but they have a 3" lip and are 35mm offset. They are not stagered because im not always a fan of that look. My intentions were to powder coat the rims gold or bronze, but im not sure I even like them on the car now. They look so damn small. I dont care for the stretched tire look either. I thought the 265 would look good on a 9.5 but apparently not. They look absolutly perfect on my old 9"
