Default Preliminary pics of 7 spoke chrome GS wheels on SC300... do you like it?

one tire had a nasty cut/nail in it and it wouldnt hold air so that is getting repaired tomorrow so no pics of the left side of the car, lol.

here are some really crappy pics as I just got home and it started to snow and get dark. I know the pics suck but what are your preliminary impressions on how these look on an sc?

Do you like them?

thanks dude. I should have kept the CCW's but the car was supposed to be sold. Now Im keeping the lexus, selling the cobra and having rotator cuff surgery... not all like I planned but thats life.

heres a pic of the ccw's... damn I shouldnt have sold them. What an idiot




and the cobra which is for sale 75k miles for $8,000





oh well, its the 7 spoke's for now. I might trade back for the GS wheels I origionally had on the car...

ya it could always be worse though! looks liek your doin well... those ccw's are awsome... sigh however just a sugestion if u have tien coilovers i would drop it a bit more i think it would look alot better! (just a suggestion)

the gs wheels dont look terrible but compared to the ccw's ehh

I think they look pretty good, although I prefer the 5 spoke chrome GS ones.

if you consider a built motor with JDM Stage 3 cams, a 2.4 kenne bell blower at 21psi and an 85 shot n20 making 735rwhp-855rwtq SAE then going to a GT47-80 turbo and blowing the motor... yep thats me lol

i thought so. i shot a rod through the oil pan at just 371rwhp ('98 cobra), which is why i decided to completely change directions, and get a luxury car like a lexus. i've had her 2 weeks now, and i'm already shopping turbo options. why can't i rid the "mod bug". i need to buy an '81 chevette, and leave well enough alone.
