Default Has anyone seen these wheels on a 3rd gen?

Been browsing for wheels and really like these alot......V-Forged 13 wheels. Has anyone ever seen a 3rd gen with these wheels? I am now leaning towards getting a Silver GS w/black interior as I am realizing that it is damn near impossible to find a white one with black leather. I would color match the spokes on this and leave the lip chrome.

good luck finding one. It took me 1.5 years to locate a white/black GS back in 2005.
If I were to do it again, I would get any black interior and paint exterior to a non-pearl white since its almost impossible to paint match.jmho

I don't care where I have to go to get it...I am looking for a White w/ Black leather interior 2007-2008 GS 350 or GS 450h. But I don't want a crap load of miles either.

It took me a long time to even find my white/black gs new. Good luck trying to find it used without even having to go across the country!

If it's the same car as in your sig, i dont think glacier frost mica counts as "white".

I looked into getting these wheels for my gs and they were made by a company called D-Forged out of Cali but i believe they went out of business! But you said V-Forged so maybe they changed names r something but good luck.
