You can get a set of replica rims like the 2006 GS430 from "OEMRIMS" on e-bay for $700 or chrome plated for $900 for the set of 4. Check it out before you buy. You can call OEMRIMS and ask any questions you have. I just bought a set of 2006 GS300 oem rims chrome plated from them and I should be getting them tomorrow.

DO NOT spend $2500 on OEM wheels. You can get em cheaper from Sewell (ask Chuckb) what he got them for and then get tires. I think they have em in the 795-895 price. If you were spending than much, go with a nice 19-20 wheel and tire for $3000.

the ride on run flats is horrible. I'm borrowing a set from my buddies 06 GS and they suck. They are loud and you can feel every little bumb on the road. And this is with my stock suspension. My old ride with 20's and tein flex was better.

Default 5 Spoke at OEMRIMS

Has anyone actually bought a set of the 2006 5 spoke wheels from OEMRIMS off ebay? What's the experience with the wheel iteself? How close to the Lexus OEM is it?
