Hey, I'm reaching out to all of you pros in here cuz I need a little help. My baby needs a new pair of shoes! I got a '99 GS3 gold/beige.......haven't anythign to it yet. So I thought I'd start off by getting some rims for it.....I currently have the stock 16". I was hoping you could help me out and tell me what are some good sites where I can look/buy rims. Or if there's anyone in the Toronto area, if you could tell me of osme place to check out. And I know, the look of any car is all in the eye of the beholder, but I am very very indecisive, so if you guys could give any suggestions, that would be really appreciated. I guess I'm looking for something along the lines of 19" (dare I go for 20" ) in chrome. Just something to add to the already incredible look of the car. Well thanks.

PS. I don't know jack about tired either, so if you odn't mind, please help a brother out

K,

for tyers in 19s, get the TOYO T-1S. reasonably priced~$1000usd(245/35/19 front +275/30/19 rear), long lastiing, low noise, handles well, very good quality.

i think savvy has ideas on rim shops..

will

go for the Lowenhart BR5's thats what I think I'm gonna get. Also there are a set of A-Tech's out there that look similar to the Lowenharts but I don't remember the model number. The Lowenharts have 18, 19, and 20's, the ATech's have only 17s, and 18s. Hey Bobcat if you get a chance can you email me back about the guy in PA who can hook up a good deal on the Lowenharts. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks guys. Well, I'll check em out. I just went through the gallery and looked at the cars. I saw a couple that I kinda like (not sure cuz its only a pic) and i'm not sure how they would look with my car (the gold color). Someone had 19" Altstadt Type 1 and someone else had 20" Enkei Tereza's. I know, these two rims got completely different looks, but like i said, i'm indecisive. But I liked the look of both of them. Well, I guess i'll keep searching.
