What about Silver with staggered Silver wheels and a chrome lip....That in my opinion would look mean!

I love the gunmetal look on a mellinium silver car. I have 5 differnt wheels I would love to put on my car, 3 of them are gunmetal. I will try to keep the dream alive. LOL

IMHO black is just too dark on a silver car. I like gunmetal much better.

^^^ DASHOCKER I agree.... give that baby a fat lip ! 9.5 or 10 inch lip is a must for these cars.

Dam !! a 10 inch lip would be insane, I think you mean 10 inch wide wheel. Biggest lips we have seen on these cars are about 4 inches...

^^ My mistake on that one, I meant a 10 inch wheel A 10 inch lip would be crazy though! It would be like a tracker trailer wheel !!! Isn't there another member with black rims on a silver GS? I remember seeing a sig while posting on here one day!
