just test fitted my wheels
just wanted to see how these would look on my gs300. still dont know if i want to keep them or not. wish they were staggered. all i had was my phone to take the pictures. let me know what you think.
i was wondering if i would be able to make them flush with the fenders by using spacers? also what size tire to run?
specs:
Amistad Grace 19x8.5 +36

Well they look good. I really love this desing with five spokes going wider. But it looks weird like that without tire!

Hm, can't say I like them.

Here's a tip for how to take pics of wheels that you are "test fitting"
Jack the car up and then put Jackstands under it.
Then, if you dont have another jack, take the original jack out so the car balances on the jackstands
Now bolt the wheel on (only need 2 or 3 lugs done up)
Finally get some newspaper or a towel on the top of your jack so it doesnt scratch the wheel, and place it UNDER the wheel which is just hanging there.
Slowly jack it up until you reach the resistance point that you think it will start taking weight off the jackstands. If you have coilovers, you should be setting the spring perch to the absolute lowest point, so you can push it right up to the 'flush' point.
Now take pics and post them up.
That pic is pretty much useless for deciding how the wheel looks on your car, unless you are planning to install hydros and 16" cylinders so you can "lock it up" and drive like that. You should have just gotten some shoes out and balanced the bare rim on them, in front of the current wheels so you can stand back and take the pic. Takes 2 minutes at most!

thanks for the advice. i usually dont test fit my wheels i just get the tires on them and put them on. probably do a proper test fitting when i decide on what suspension to run

Nah...you'd only need 8" cylinders to lock up higher than that...ask how I know
