I want the cv5's. I am just waiting on you guys to put them out. Maybe you could help me decide mike@vossen. I can't make up my mind on which finish either matte graphite or Sliver polished. I and leaning more towards the matte graphite. So mike@vossen do you guys offer a CL discount?
Here's a starfire pearl ISF with Matte Graphite CV5's
And I know this is a Benz, but you can at least see the difference from Matte Graphite to Silver Polished against a white car.

Has Lexus produced a luxury sedan to rival the BMW? Well, if you drive the GS slowly, you won’t notice much of a difference. Jokes aside, the part they really did get right is the styling, which is very bold and ambitious.
Basically the only engine used by this car is a 3.5-liter V6, which uses -4S port and direct injection to deliver 306 horsepower through a 6-speed automatic gearbox either to the rear or to all 4 wheels. Taking things even further, 1 American customizer has decided has improved the styling a little bit with some new “boots”.
Vossen has replaced the factory fitted wheels with their own 20-inch VVS-CV7 concave wheels. These are sized 20×9 inches at the front axle and 20×10.5 inches at the rear and finished in matte graphite. The rest of the car is standard, though the F Sport package does change the overall look and lowers the stance a bit.

According to the Sewell Lexus website, there are now 4 Official F-Sport aftermarket wheels for the 2012 GS350. All are of Forged Construction :
18x8 F-Sport Forged

19x8 F-Sport Forged

19x9 F-Sport Forged

19X8, 10-Spoke Forged F-Sport

Looks like the first 3 options are the same double spoke design, just differences in size (18 inch vs 19 inch) and width ( 8 inch vs 9 inch ). I wonder whether we could get that double spoke design but in staggered set-up : 19X8 Front, 19X9 Rear...
EDIT :
If any member has those 19 inch Double Spoke Official F-Sport Wheels on their 2013 GS350, please post up the photos so that we could see how they look in real life. It would be greatly appreciated.
