Default Wheel opinion
I came across these wheels and got to thinking I may try something new for the GS since it has been ignored for some time. What are your thoughts on the XXR 006 two piece light weight staggered wheels (black with red lip) on my black GS?



Here is my GS





Here is the wheel

I am interested in this color combo. I just checked D2's website and I-forged makes a similar looking whee (scrolling the site now for more). Any GS's out there with black & red combo wheel set up?

Default 2 pc wheels
Make sure you can buy the separate pieces for your wheels as what I found is that you cannot buy just the outside rim for OZ wheels should you curb one. You have to buy the entire wheel. Not good! regards, central Oregon

im Runnin XXR 006's but in gunmetal.... definitely a nice wheel for the price you pay!.

ive seen a couple of G35's rollin the red lip and or blue (matching car color of course) and it didnt look bad at all.

regardless the red/black should look nice!

I understand how you feel, we can have the individual components repaired / replaced.
