Default I Bought Rims (****pics now included! ****)

Im having the best day ever! Its been a year since I bought the GS, and today I finally went online a ordered some rims.



These are 20X8.5 all for, ASA RT8, with Continental ContiSportContact 2 (Size 245/30-20) Tires.

I know they are not top of the line, but Im a student and these suited my wallet perfectly. Let me know what do you guys think. Ill make sure to post some pics as soon as I put *** on.

Im sure those will sweet once they are mounted on your car. Make sure you lower your car too, if it isnt already lowered, to better complement the look

Looks pretty good and the quality is decent. Nothing to apologize about here....staggered is over rated. GS is a luxo sedan, not a sports car. You can make it sportybut staggered is not tantamount to looking good. Now put them on and show some pics.

I love the staggered look, but TireRack.com didnt offer these staggered. Besides like I said $$$ was a big factor in buying the rims.
