Nice, those are some very high quality wheels..I bought a used set in chrome a few yrs back.. and I did see yours for sale a few wks ago...looked like a good deal for a great wheel... I have found that this wheel balances very well with very little weight and no vibration issues at all, they ride like you would expect from an OE wheel...perfect. I think the color choice you made is a good one.

btw, I have three of those in chrome if anyone has an extra to sell me... or if someone wants 3... the fourth is damaged (don't ask!)

And yes I would trade my set of 3 for OE GS 18x8's w/ cash difference.. or I thought of having it repaired and while they are at it have the back pair widened to 18x10! So I'm looking forward to seeing your new wheels on your car in silver..

Hi All,

Here is a pic i have. Seize helped me did a drop chop. Looks so much better when the car is lower.



How did i get the wheels? Long story short, i got it from my friend's cousin down in LA. Suppose to be the last set, so i snagged it.

These wheels are nice. 8lbs lighter then my 3GS 18x8 wheels. These are rated at 22lbs each.

They do balance very well.. Very little weights needed.

Anyway, I am selling it. Looking to get 19's or 20's.

Chuckb, i would trade you.. but i have the same set already. but i am looking to get some 08+ GS460 wheels tho.

Thank you all!
