I think picking wheels is the most difficult part of modding your car. IMO, it determines the rest of you're mods as far as the look your trying to go with. I think all the wheels you mentioned will look good on your car. A few suggestion, look through the gallery and wheel section, and maybe you can have some of the guys at the photoshop section help you paste different wheels on your car.

Good Luck

This is the first step in modding your car so it is also the most important. I believe the wheels that you choose outlines which way you will go with the car. I chose to stay with the luxury look as opposed to the sport look. It is a fine line and which ever way you go it will be fantastic. Good luck in your quest.

those are nice too, it's probably goin to be the maya dts (5spoke) or the stm (mesh) look....soon to find out. hopefully those would clear potential stoptech 14" or the oem supra brakes... i currently have a jada model of a blue gs430 on the dts (want to paint it blk chrry)

Yeah too bad it was already dark and we couldn't really appreciate the color.

It would have been awesome if you came earlier that day to the photoshoot. Your color would have added a lot of variety to the shot. We could have used Airtrackk in the picture too, while his car is still somewhat together?
