Pharonick Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Hey everybody, NEW MEMBER!! :D Just recently got a brand new GS430, I got the 17inch rims, the spoiler, the navi, and the sound system. The car is amazing and very fun to drive. After i tint the windows, i was thinking about getting new wheels. Any recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neo Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 i was thinking about getting new wheels. Any recommendations? Welcome! That is one loaded question you asked. ;) You'll need to provide a little more info: budget? size (18, 19, 20)? same size all around or staggered? style (dish, 5-spoke, 6-spoke, mesh, ...)? planning on big brake upgrade? lip? finish (painted, polished, chrome)? weight an issue? build (cast, forged) an issue? construction (1-piece, 2-piece, 3-piece)? Sorry to dump a load of questions on you but any info on your preference will help the wheel gurus give you a better qualified answer.

TWINTURBO619 Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Hey everybody, NEW MEMBER!! :D Just recently got a brand new GS430, I got the 17inch rims, the spoiler, the navi, and the sound system. The car is amazing and very fun to drive. After i tint the windows, i was thinking about getting new wheels. Any recommendations? on a personal note, the style of rim that mrsypher and I have on our cars are probably the best looking ones out there so far. but that's my opinion. good luck on your decision.

Pharonick Posted February 16, 2004 Author Share Posted February 16, 2004 budget? size (18, 19, 20)? same size all around or staggered? style (dish, 5-spoke, 6-spoke, mesh, ...)? planning on big brake upgrade? lip? finish (painted, polished, chrome)? weight an issue? build (cast, forged) an issue? construction (1-piece, 2-piece, 3-piece)? 20's, all the same size, i dunno about the style yet, and i was planning on a big brake upgrade, i wanted the finish to be chrome, how big of an effect would a heavy rim lets say the lowenhart ld1's have on speed of the car, and thats also my price range, thats all the info i have right ow :) thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
