Ok folks,

Here's what I have now:

I'm thinking of changing to this:
Racing Hart GT5 (19's staggered - in silver)

Yay or Nay? Comments Please......

Here's the actual pic of the Racing Hart GT5 (Evolution) minus the center cap.

They look more sporty than your current TRDs.
19"+ will also look better than 18"s.
Buy them only if you can get a very very good deal.

I'll try to find a better pic of the wheels and redo it again.

Thanks Talwang. I'm getting a very very good deal on these. I just needed a photoshop and some encouragement from the forum before taking the plunge.

Oh, BTW....I'm getting the Garson neck pads which will take 8 weeks or so. They coming from overseas via "snail mail" from Japan.

I'll try to have pics of the new shoes w/ the new accessory sometime in the near future.

wow..8 weeks
why don't you ask if GSXOTIC can hook you up?
or ask http://luxury-bippu-style.com to see if they have those in stock.

I would say go for it. Your Wald kit requires larger wheels than the current 18's as it gives the car a larger stance IMO.

Your car wont look like this at all. The photoshop of these are more like 20's. See how the wheels fill the gap entirely? You will regret 19's since they dont fill the fender gap as well as 20s.

Not entirely true.
20" won't fill up the wheel gap completely.
If you run F: 245/30/20 & R:285/25/20, the overall diameter is the same as stock wheels.

Not only I photoshop these rims onto Tee's car, but also I lowered his car to create a little VIP style look.
It is mostly the lowering that gives you the badass look.

Nah, not true.. I went from 20's to 19s and I don't regret it even in the slightest and I doubt I have any fender gap with my 19s. But to each their own and I'm hoping that we dont' start the 19's vs 20's debate again.

"It is mostly the lowering that gives you the badass look."

Straight.. I want to go down another 1/2" but I'm already high centering on certain driveways and speed bumps. Damn

Oh and hey Tee.. I may be selling my RH 19" Cx's soon, and for pretty cheap. I'm looking into getting a set of Work VSxx's in 19x11 and 19x9.5s in some serious offsets..

And now a question for you "rim kings".....

I'm plan to run this fitment application:

Rims
--------------
Front = 19x8.5 (Offset = 40)
Rear = 19x9.5 (Offset = 44)

Tires
--------------
Front = 245 39 19
Rear = 275 30 19


Will this fitment work for me?

Your valuable feedback is greatly appreciated in order for me to move forward w/ this.

thanks a mil........teeman3

I think you better buy hipendicul's wheels because the fitment sucks.
They are too conservative even for a GS, imho.
You can still run those wheels with your current spacers on.

just like what rich said. way toooooooooo conservative!!!

If you want a wheel that has that same style as those RHs, some Volk GT-Cs in RMC would be very nice.. I would run atleast a 19x10.5 ET 25. If you roll the fenders you may be able to run a 19x10.5 ET 18. But 9.5 on a 44 is going to be like stock fitment.. Oh and RMC is a chrome like finish. I think these are Merc Silver..
