IMO the black GT1's complimented your ride better.. plus they look like they had better fitment than your new 5zigens.

Not too shabby tho.

Fit better as in the front offsets? Im thinking about throwing some 5mm or 10mm spacers on the front.

I like these new ones better actually, I find black with chrome/machined lip is WAY overdone...
spacers should be your next step in really finishing it off.

Good job man!

Thats really why I got rid of them. There are too many people doing it and I didnt want to be in the same boat as them. Any recommendations on spacers?

Ya... even though im not a huge fan of the black face with a chrome lip... I kinda like the look of those on your ride more so than your new setup.

It still looks good though, your new setup. Im sure spacers will definately help set it off right =) and better pics.

Your old pics look nicer than your new pics. Im sure that helps sway the votes towards your old setup as well.

Looks good, get 5mm rear and 10mm front spacers and it'll look great.

^ agreed
the front needs a push, about 10mm, the back looks ok, might not need anything, but 5mm wouldnt hurt. I think you'll like the look too.

I'm still not really sure why everyone's into the black...sure it works, but everyone's got them. I don't think you could go wrong either way though, both styles/colours work for the G.
