If I had to choose between the two...I'd go with the ADR's, looks more like a classic mesh wheel. Where as the Zenettis look like they got too much going on in the center...looks kinda awkward.

that's my 2cents

how do you think a 20" silver wheel will look on a GS?

Can anybody post pics?

IMO, go wit the ADRs. The Zenetti's look a little too busy. I agree completely with Seize.

out of those 2 I also think ADRs look better... I just hope Manaray doesn't see this thread

But What I would do (what I'm doing now for my car) , pay the **** you have to, try to save up, spend some on maintenance, and buy some used quality japanese wheels. I feel your pain I want to mod mine too but school and maintance come first. I know it's a pain to have a nice looking car and not be able to mod it but think of this way..... your car is better looking stock than 60%-80% of the moded normal cars.....

just my $.02

Put it this way...if you get 20's, it's gonna cost you on ride and on maitenance, if you think about it, having below average when it comes to quality 20 inch wheels will definteily get you in trouble in repair costs, so save yourself and just get nicer used wheels, cause if you skimp on an expensive car, it's not worth it. Trust me through experience. Sorry to ruin your thoughts, but it'll be better.

Out of those 2, I would go for the ADRs too, I have seen them in silver 20" on a silver GS and they do look nice. Also I understand what you are saying about your budget, and those are alot better looking than some of the "20" something shiny's" that i see people ride on.

Do what makes you happy man, bottom line!

Going to college in a Lexus? Wheels on a budget? Does not compute...

To minimize theft exposure on campus, I'd stay with stock 17s. If you must have cheap 20s, I would recommend you buy a fifth wheel so you'll have an extra for when one gets bent (you will bend one!)
