Touren TR5 Hypersilver wheels for my 2002 GS??
Hello my fellow GS owners! I just purchased my 2nd generation GS a month ago..I was looking into getting some wheels since I'm sitting on stock 16's right now and want my baby to look good for the summer, so...I've been looking at wheels and don't want anything too flashy since I'm older and just want a nice touch on my baby...I've looked at several sets of wheels and decided on the Touren Hypersilver TR5's. The problem I have is that I can't find an actual photo of these wheels on a car, I only see an image of the rim from advertisements...can anyone help me with this? Thanks.

These?
My 2¢: They'll look horrendous. That style wheel looks good on zero cars. The convex face with fake lip depth just looks bad. The covered hub/lug area...the way the split spokes bulge...just...ugh.
At $274.99 per wheel, you can afford something that looks better. There are tons of options. Since you like the split-spoke look, try looking up the Varrstoen ES4. (See? I helped you.) it's a way better looking wheel that can be had with a concave style and significantly less expensive.
Also: Lower first. Wheels second. Always. Riding around on aftermarket wheels at stock ride height will look bad no matter how awesome the wheels are.
Of course, that's just my 2¢

Wow..Thanks for the heads up. I thought they looked good for some reason..lol. Now that I look at them they wouldn't look good on my car. And by the way Mk2tmr2...those wheels you recommended are hot! Luv em! I think those might be the ones! My baby is silver so I think the Varrstoen ES4's will look nice...thanks for the assistance folks!
