New wheels...thoughts?
I got some new wheels put on over the weekend.
I love the way they look...plus they have good clearance for LS400 brake upgrade.
Thinking I should install RCAs in the front to drop it a bit and paint headlight housing black to help accent the wheels.
Any thoughts?

Yeah, that's how high the rear is...offset on the wheels is +40 in the rear so no rubbing and room for dropping it a bit.
Got PPE headers, new O2 sensors and mounts going on in the next couple of weeks

Thanks for the complements everyone.
I'll snap an eye level photo of the car so that for a better perspective of how the car sits.
I like the headlights, but something is needed to help accent the wheels, or its the height...for me something needs to be tweaked just a bit.

Well since the wheels are already bought, mounted and installed, I can't say much to help haha.
But anyway, I like those wheels. Only thing I'd have done different is go 1" smaller on the wheel diameter. For some reason most wheels that aren't a little deep dish or have a lip seem too big on the 2GS if they're in the 20" or so range. It seems the more I see larger wheels on a 2GS, the more they look gaudy. 18-19" with a lip or none, seems to be just the right size to not look to showy but still have an aggressive/performance IMO.
