allison, this is what u asked
So be prepared for it, especially the internet Actually, this is pretty calm compared to other forums (as others have statedf).
It is safe to say this forum is a JDM or polished alloy and forged forum, not a chrome/heavy wheel one. But to each his own and props to you for being one of the few GXs with rims.
ot these on yesterday, tell me what you think.....

Sorry, but don't really like those. I'm sure you spent a lot of time looking for the rims that you like to have someone say they don't like 'em in a couple of seconds. However, I'm more worried of the very low profiles (40's) in an SUV. I get nervous thinking of any lower than 55s on SUVs. Will they be able to handle the load and potholes?

good resource for tire sizing and specs is www.1010tires.com . they have a tire size calculator section that gives you all points of comparison for 2 tires sizes.

i like the opinions good and bad. what i take offense to are comments like.... "unless you plan to lower it, add some neons underneath, some fuzzy dice, and a BIIIGGGG Hail Mary on the dash..." and "these rims are border line ghetto and pimpy. They belongs on a Cadillac Escalade." which are unnecessary. either way, i appreciate the info and hopefully i can add value for someone else.

Like any good surveys, anonymous are the best way to solicit the most honest opinions, why even ask if you can't handle the true?
Try survey other's opinion in person with those wheels, then you will find out the real definition of 'rude'. I bet you will get plenty of 'Those are nice wheels!', then follow with a evil grin.

I like I am a fan of the 5-star spokes with nice lip/dish. This would exactly be the rims that I would put when I get the GX. Would you know if there's 55 or 60 series tires for these? Please post pics when you have them on-I would reaaaaaly appreciate it

Hey Allison, here's my opinion
The wheels aren't what I would have chosen, buy my wheels (on my SC430 or my Denali) may not be what you would have chosen. how's that?
I will say, the white/chrome and black accents of the tint and running boards has a nice look overall. Glad to see that 22's look nice and not out of place on the GX.

and, for anyone that's looking at rims, the 22s on the gx are still a good ride. and, after seeing them on it in person, i'm really glad i didn't go for 20s.

I'm curious how it handles with those wheels and tires?
I love the stock tires for the rain & snow, but would love some crisp handling in the summer months.
Comments?
