I looked long and hard at that style rim before I bought my BR5's.

A better brand for that style would be Rays Revolver or MAE monoblock. Hiro is very cool and almost sold me a set of the Rays Revolvers (he had them in stock, but I think they were 19's which is the size you should go for in my opinion).

m,

if it is the actual MAE with japanese car's bolt pattern 5:114.3 PCD for 2500 w/tyres then it is a good deal.

or for about the same price~$2700, you should get them from HIRO. he has Revolver of Arthur Exchange made by RAYS of japan-one of the biggest wheel co. if you have not pay yet, let me know as i might get something from HIRO. may be he will work us a deal.

store.yahoo.com/lexusparts

if you want to see how they look go to page 20-30 of gallery there is a blk GS w/the same style rim.
