Default I want your Rim Opinion

I got a 2000 GS300 pearl white. I got the money saved up around $2500-3000 for rims and tires. I keep jumping from wanting chrome, black or even white rims. What do you guys think? I like rims with lots of spokes! Show me pictures I am looking at seize's aftermarket guide right now.

VS-XX, MRR GT1, Iforged, etc.

you've got a lot of money saved up. You could likely even find a set of used HRE's for that price.

Always loved those Works, I'm a chrome fan though; not sure how I feel about the bronze finish.

Thanks for the input guys, I am not a fan of the bronze/gold and I wish i could afford those IForged wheels. You guys like white on white?

i like both the bronze look (like curry) they really do look good on white cars, but i also like the white on white. there is a guy on here with white spoked rims i can't remember his name but if you search white on white gs there is pics and it looks sic. never get chrome. they are heavy and hideous. good luck and definatly check out the classifieds.

Modulare M7's with brushed center and chrome lip in a staggered setup 20x9 up front 20x10.5 in rear w/ 4" lip, they are around $4k for a set, but try to find something that looks similar...
