after much thinking and assessing my financial situation, I decided on going with a look close to stock. I thought of the staggered 19's with a deep lip in the back with a nice drop but I use the car for lugging clients around and don't want them bouncing too much. I decided on eibach pro's for a one inch drop and some stock looking 18" rims WITHOUT a lip to make it look bigger. And I don't want to go staggered so i can rotate the tires. Any ideas on a nice rim and tire size to achieve this? I want it to look more like how stock bimmers and benzes look with very little gap at stock heights(compared to our 4X4) and the 18" alloys that look clean without looking "modified"

thanks.

BBS CH's come to mind if you want a stock Euro look. Great wheel, and will definitely give you that stock agressive look. my .02.

My Weds Farmas should be listed soon. w. new tires

or go with 18" 06 GS rims like chuckb

Best looking "stock" wheel IMO. Fits the car nearly perfect, and doesn't look too small. Several members are using them on 2GS, and they look great.

Another vote for the 06 GS 18's.

I think that my wheels look pretty conservative. They are 18x8.5 and 35 offset. SSR GT-7 hybrid, 2 piece forged.

Probably the 06 GS430 wheels like chuckb has.

Unless you dont want to spend $$$ on a staggered 19" They will ride great. Not sure what your clients are but I am in real estate and drive clients around all the time in my GS on 19" iforgeds and Tein CS slammed and it rides better than stock and have no problems with the extra weight. Just FYI.

I am a Realtor® too.

I like the '06 gs430 18's but can't find any for a reasonable price.

Subpar-thos e look really nice and it's close to what I am trying to achieve. I will look on craigslist and ebay for the 06 430's. A buddy of mine is giving me some Rx330 rims that I have seen on 2gs that looks good too but they are too narrow and I would have to space the back out.

or the 2IS wheels, and maybe a rx330 wheels too.
They for sure will look stock.

I 2nd the RX330 wheels, but I like the Mazda RX8 wheels too. I've seen them on some GS's and they look more flush with the rear fenders.

BTW, mine might be up for sale in a bit.

Definately 06+ 18" GS 5-spokes. I just put those on my car after selling my 20's. I am going for the clean OEM aftermarket look and this just completed it!

The 06 GS 18's would look really good.. there's a few members on here with that setup and it looks really good.. You can acheive the look you want without going to crazy.. THat would be a perfect setup for everyday driving..

The RX330 wheels look nice but were not meant for a 2GS. The width of the wheel is too narrow. If you do get RX330 wheels, you'll need spacers/longer studs to achieve a better look and that's just more of a hassle and possibly dangerous.

Since I'm such a nice guy, I'll run outside and snap a few photos of my car for you.
