Decided to try something different. Unexpected, but still OE~ish.
Highlander 16's with OE centercaps for winter. New Blizzak WS80's in 215/60.
Yes I have an oven in my garage.
Also, these wheels wanted to interfere with my caliper outer fins, so I removed a little material from the calipers to create enough room for clearance, rocks and junk.
I also photoshopped this hot garbage before buying the wheels:
Like I can’t help but continue to base model this GS300 any further. I wish it had cloth seats and no sunroof because I refuse to believe the Cressida ever died.

get the seats retrimmed perhaps?
remove sunroof, weld in patch to replace the glass then paint over it?

Don’t tempt me. Lol. I actually wonder if there was a cloth trim level in a Japanese Aristo, I prefer OE stuff.

Thanks. I think they are similar to the 17" GS wheel in some aspects. I would have just bought regular steelies if I wasn’t OCD about how to protect the exposed hubs without using wheel covers.

They look almost muscle car ish. Like Camaro Rally wheels. Kinda.
Also snow is great. I got to do some snow hooning today. About four to six inches of wet snow on a twisty sand road, and man was it good.

Cloth seats in a GS? I like your idea.

Yes! snow hooning. Not at all like drifting on dry pavement, but I can’t afford drifting this car like I used to do with my IS300. Still fun though, in the right conditions.
