are these really fsport wheels because they look sickkk. didnt think any oem wheel would look that nice

also when did they change the spare tire to one thats socially acceptable. I keep my huffy lubed up for the day I get a flat because I refuse to drive my car around on the mustard yellow spare...

They look like impostor F-Sport wheels. IMO f-sport wheels are ugly and way over priced.

Those are certainly not F-Sports! They're F-Upped for sure! Someone was really stretching it to put those on the car and call them F-Sports. Good try though, and believe me, someone will love it!

Even though the donut is a short time, safety feature, it does nothing for the look of your car when you have that yellow thing on it. The is an '11, so maybe that was when the change to black was made. I have runflats, with no spare on my '10. So I can't say for sure when the change took place.

not a fan of black wheels at all. with that said, these look awful, and even worse with that color of car.

damn, I guess that ad is misleading. Those would be pretty cool for oem wheels but decent for aftermarket. Lexus has always made really cool wheels for the 3gs though. I love my tourmalines and the g spiders look sick as well. Hell even the factory gunmetal 5 spoke wheels are pretty baller. These wheels look like they would go along with the lines of the f sport package.
