Like I've stated before, due to the lack of visable body language and inflection in one's voice, it's hard to determine "how" they mean to say a statement (not to mention the lack of actually KNOWING the person, what they've seen in the life, what they've been through). Guess that's why I need to explain myself some times...

As for "flossers" (or poseurs), yeah, in LA, there are quite a few...you see these guys at clubs and whatnot and dress and act like they're some sort of drug lord or a John Gotti....hehehehe...quite funny sometime...you just want to slap them into reality....the funniest part is when they wear fake "designer" suits and/or fake watches (always seems to be Rolexes...guess it's just the most 'obvious' brand) and they think they're just SO damn pimp! Hehehhe...kinda like Ricers who think their car is quick because they have fake sponsorship stickers on their car...

Getting back to wheels...why not do a nice 6/7 spoke wheel...like this....

I like those rims. Got any pics, or suggestions for anything like that.

I completely agree with Manaray as far as chrome opinions and the whole ghetto look. But I say buy it up because if everyone has chrome wheels then my silver ones look that much classier and more unique. hmm.. but if everyone has chrome wheels will there be a biased opinion that all lexus owners want to be rap stars?

That wheel is a HRE 546R...in 20", should be about $6676 retail...(20x8.5 & 20x10, high polished, all clearcoat)...

iForged makes both a 6 and 7 spoke wheel that would look pretty good on the JZS147 GS also...$4268 retail (same setup as above)

I agree, they just look sooo nice on the car, I can't understand why I don't like them alone.

This is why PhotoShop is such an important tool...

$6000? Maybe on the HRE's, but you can get the the iForged for under $3K...check with www.wheelexperts.com

You gotta pay to play. Quality wheels and 2JZ-GTE's don't grow on trees...

Strongsail - Hehehe...thanks for the cover fire! Good think I have my flamesuit on!
