They all copy the aftermarket rim designs. Almost all those wheel designs came out years before on the aftermarket.

1SICKLEX, I know, I am so sick of everyone copying each other!!
That's why I got really excited about this yesterday, can you imagine how cool that is? Drive a mini semi truck as a daily!!
Now that is different!

lexus copied benz, infinity copied lexus, huyndai copied infiniti, and so on and so on. They have to base their cars on something that was successful before otherwise it wont sell.

I've noticed that a ton of cars out now seem to have wheels that look like the stock 06-08 18" IS350 wheels.

Dude. You made a good point. I find the wheel designs across the sector is starting to bleed onto the different manufacturers.
