Default My GS finally sittin on Dubs

All,
I finally got my 20's installed on my GS430, I purchased the wheels almost a month ago from fellow club lexus member JARALAR. these wheels are RPM505 chrome 20x8.5 in the front and 20x10 in the rear ( 2.5 inch lip in the front 4 inch lip in the rear)..I swapped out the stock shocks and springs for a set of Bilsteins Sports and lowered the car with Tanabe springs...I finshed the whole thing off with upgrading to cross drilled Brembo rotors, ceramic pads and Dazien Bushings. the ride tight, firm, and responsive, a totally different car..I love it..

then what do lexus guys consider to be "dubs"?? because every other car forum, "dubs" are just pretty much any type of 20" wheel.

As much as I love chrome I prefer silver wheels on a silver car.
Looks good, though. Nice drop. Good job.
