Default Oem BBS toyota avalon wheels

Has anyone seen a gs2 with the 18" Oem avalon bbs wheels.
Iam looking to pick up a set, also does anyone know the weight on these? Iam guessing that they are lighter than my 18" IS350 wheels?

Damn that's not a bad idea. They may be BBK friendly as well...

For an OEM wheel those are damn nice. According to the specs (18x8 +45) they should fit not problem

I've got a buncha pics posted way back of my 2GS on 18" BBS. They're not identical to the ones on the Avalon, they were offered on the Camry sport or Camry BBS edition or some nonsense. They look pretty similar though if you wanna look for my old pics.

FWIW, mine weighed in at 18.2 lbs and believe me, you could feel it. Car was LIGHT on its toes and spry as all getup.

Edit - best I could do... donkin' =)



Edit 2 - found it dropped too

Nah, I never measured my gas mileage with the OEM 16's, as I only had em on for a few weeks when I bought the GS. I got 22 mpg with the BBS average with 50/50 city/hwy. Now I've got heavy 20's and I think I'm down to 20 mpg and it's definitely slower off the line.
