I just installed mine this past Thursday. I think these wheels look better on 2nd gen GS then 06' models. Especially on silver GS!

JCHO, it looks good. I haven't tinted my windows, but yours looks good as a whole package with the wheels. I don't think North Carolina will allow tinting that dark...they are kind of wierd here about that kind of stuff...although every SUV with a rocket launcher inside can have the blacked out windows.

Looks nice!!

Virginia has retarded law about tinting also. Virginia allows 50/35 (F/R) for tinting which I believe are similar or same with NC?? I just went ahead and did 35 all around and having black interior makes it look darker.

I saw these again today on a silver 3rd gen GS430. Rolled along side him and check them out. I'm really feeling these wheel will look good on a 2nd gen black GS.

Wonder if anyone knows for sure if they''ll take a BBK upgrade and what the max rotor/caliper size would be.

I got these same rims for me 2000 GS. I will try to post pics but all of them are too big. I had aftermarket 17 rims and I want to show the before look and after look. Can anyone help me downsize them? Thank you.
