Default Opinions/Criticisms....W/ pics.

Hello everybody, fairly new to the forum here. Finally got some pics and I just wanted to see what ppl think of my mostly stock 2GS. Also I wanted to ask about some input on wheels....I know I want some sort of black or hyper black wheels for sure either 19" or 20", but I am a little overwhelmed with the choices out there. I almost forgot...I have swithed to the black pearl emblems and the cleared out side markers. Im kinda going for a stealthy look ....ENJOY!!

Welcome Warren, GS is looking clean!

I'd suggest looking at the 18" 5 spoke from the 3rd gen GS.... similar to the RX you posted but better fittment for our sedans

First of all, nice Lexus collection!

I'd consult with Derrick w/ D2 Autosport on wheels for your GS.

He has wheels to fit almost everyone's budget and had a 2GS himself,
so he is very knowledgeable about the car. Black chrome is still hit-or-miss
with availability on certain wheels; Perhaps the Vossen or
MRR Wheel styles would appeal to you

A nice set of staggered (wider in the rear) wheels and tires really
bring the second-gen GS to life.

Also, with 19s or 20s, I would definitely lower the car.

Nice collection indeed broseph . We need to get a pic sometime of all of our cars. ('01 Crystal White GS, '01 Black Pearl GS, '07 Crystal White GS)

Of course Crystal White outnumbers Black Pearl...
