Can't wait to see the 18x10 on the front! This is going on your new GS?
That will be aggressive!

Wish they were at least 19s, though...

I had another set of OZ-JP's 18's but sold them to Solo..



I like these a bit more because theres no step in the lip, and its the 19" face, so I can always get a 19" lip and barrel.

I also have a set of 18x9 Volk CV-Pro's coming in, in a couple months.

Total cost on the rims was around $3000 shipped

I can understand the 18's on the IS like the old ones on solos. I think 19's would look best on the GS. Good thing you can upgrade if you want to.
