looks pretty good.
never been a fan of gold on silver though.

if you plan on going for the vip style look then i really think you should go with 19s and lower profile tires but to each their own.

wow, i think thats the lowest 2G TL on the island. Nice choice with the VS-XX. I've always like those rims even tho they are a bit over played.

to answer some q's....

i was on Tein SS's before, but got the air suspension in april. i was on diavoletto 18x8 et38 18x9 et43's before, then got these. the lips on the old wheels were bigger, however the fitment wasnt as flush.

I was considering the whole vip movement, yes 19's were always in mind but overall i'd rather be that 1" lower on 18's than run the larger diameter wheel, as 02type-S said haha...

tegkid, i've never been a fan of silver cars on gold wheels either, for a looong time. i thought it clashed horribly til i saw a silver 02 wrx on sti gold bbs's locally... tho it was simple and slammed, it changed my perspective on it. that and the fact that most people wont do it somehow made it more appealing to me. as i say, "its so ugly, its cool" lol.

leedan, yeah its air but not airrunner like all the other peeps down here are on. im not that rich its a mix-match of parts sourced via internet and locally...

eleventure, i still got no license plates but we should hit up a photoshoot sometime, as long as its around kailua area it's G, i had to rush it to the gas station w/out plates or nothing last week lol.... norfolk styles would be G tho !

thanks for the comments guys ! gonna buy a digicam off my friend soon so i'll be able to take better pics soon enough hopefully

always meant to spray em silver (high-heat silver spraypaint = ghettostyle chrometop bulbs haha) but never got around to it. with the gold wheels i almost wish i had some yellow colored bulbs in there, to add to the contrast between silver and gold...
