I am saving up for a set of GS4 or IS3 rims for my SC4 now.
The problem is, I can't decide whether I should go with the chrome ones or silver ones.
Could anyone please advise which look better (in your preference) on my car?

Thanks.

Help...
Has anyone ever had 255 tires up front on their SC?
Will they rub or cause damage to the car? If so, what's the widest tire I can go with up front?
Thanks.

Thanks for your inputs, guys.
But... Arrrrgh.. this is getting hard for me.
All the good deals I've been able to come across are silver wheels.![Frown](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
How about this.....? Would it be better for me to keep my existing chrome 16' GS3 rims or go for 17' Silver GS400 rims?![Big Grin](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Thanks for making my choice easier. ![Big Grin](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
There's a tire shop like 2 blocks away from me that sells brand new cheapo 17 chrome wheels/tires for $750.00 mounted and balanced and installed!
I was very tempted but then again.... I'll probably get laughed at for putting those things on a Lexus.

Chrome or silver GS 17s look great on the SC. I have seen a lot of SC cars with them.
Also the new 18in wheels from the 2004 LS430 look great, and I think they would look very nice on the SC.
