Default A couple of quick photos

I stopped on the way to work one morning to take a few shots of my 2007 GS350 with my new wheels. Sorry, I didn't have my lights with me. Nineteen inch TSW Londrina (gunmetal) wheels with DWS tires. 245 in front, 285 in rear.

More photos of the GS350 and other cars can been seen on my website.

Ok everyone will say it but you need to drop that truck height. Other than nice clean wheels and car. What size rims are those.

I know you have no desire to drop but it needs at least a sport drop. But if you're happy, that's all that matters!

You will drop it...trust me...

You dont need to slam it but a 1 inch drop will even do wonders...Im assuming its AWD because thats a lot of gap.

Nice pictures by the way.

get some coils asap. and make sure you get some with dampening thus the ride won't be so harsh

even a rca kit for the front w/ a 20mm drop will make it look a lot better....thats what i did with my fsports and its a night and day difference.

Pics are great but a smaller watermark will definitely work better

Thanks for the kudos on the photos. I hope to get the GS out for a photoshoot with my lights some evening and will post photos when that happens.

Sorry about the watermark, but I don't want people 'searching and stealing' my photos. This link is just a single example of what happens.
