New wheels... Like or don't like?

Haven't decided if these are the ones I want to keep permanently. A little feedback would be appreciated. They're off a 2006 Lexus GS430 wrapped in 245/40/18 Bridgestone Potenza Runflats..

Don't mind the dirt, she's just sitting in my driveway until svxfiles gets here for the 4.444 swap. Tranny is banged up again....big surprise.

Nate

With Toyota's purchase of GM's share of Subaru that statement is not that far off.

Nice! Are they hubcentric on the SVX or did you have to install rings?

rings..

I had to buy the rings for my IS300 wheels that were on before these so I just swapped them to the new wheels. I didn't bother driving it without them....

I dont think it is. The bigger wheels will make the wheel gap look less than ours. Those wheels are 18's...ours are only 16's.

Those wheels look horrible. I suggest you pass them off to me. I am sure I can hide them somewhere to prevent you from further embarrassment. PM me!
