    2G swirly's

    What do you guys think about the GS-T GSX "swirly" wheels? I don't really care how it would look. I'm assuming they are 16's.

    Does anyone know what the fatest tire I can mount on these? or the offset? I'm pretty sure it'll fit cuz Q's has the 2G[B] wheels on his 8G.

    It'll really give my car that "sleeper" look. I would paint the middle black and keep the lip polished.

    Whattaya fellas and ladies think?

    I was looking for those before, but I saw the swirly's from the 2g[A] and thought it would look different. I originally wanted the chrome GS-T wheels.

    The swirlies are 16". My GST came with them. The widest you can go is 215, maybe even 225. Heres a 2G with them painted black..

    I'm running a 205/50/16 on my OZ wheels. Not too tall, not too short.

    Swirlies are a different style thats all. The widest I know of is 215.

    https://thegalantcenter.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=45961

    That says 225 50 16 is best for the 8g.

    But do you think 225's will fit? or will it hang like love handles over the rim? I don't mind.. lol.

    I'm not 100% sure on it. You're best bet would be to contact a tire company or go to DSM board.

    thanks Reggie. I just looked it up on DSMtuners and they said 225/50 is the widest I can go. Just like you said. Ah power of search huh? lol.

    those are different. Those are from the 2G[A] GS. The swirly's are from the GS-T GSX. But you should get pics of those on the car.
