Default '02 GS300 SportDesign with IS-F wheels?

Just a test-fit..



(click image for larger pic)

Wheels were very dirty in the pic, but I think they look good. Some people think it's too "monotone". Any opinions?

The car would have to be dropped, obviously - as it sits too high in the first place, and the IS-F wheels/tires have a larger diameter than the GS430 17's that were on it...

You know, when you see HORRIBLE rims on a car, you can easily say NASTY!!! to them, but these arent either horrible or great, they give a modest look to them. Not too bad, not flashy and definitely not ugly...

DId you P-Shop Mr. Jokster? I think the first pic looks to high but the bottom one is better. Seeing it in person could be different

Thanks for all the feedback (good and bad); much appreciated. Also thanks for taking the time to photoshop it!

If you look behind the GS you'll see that the wheels weren't necessarily bought.....
