I currently have the tourmalines, definitely like the look of them. But if I were to purchase wheels right now I would go with F-sport wheels (I know its not one of your listed options).

Interesting that no one has picked the 08+ GS460/350 other than me. Also I think that's only for the RWD GS350 and not the AWD (at least for Canadian-spec GS AWDs unless it's changed for 09).

i like the 08+ gs460, 350 also.. right, 08+ awd comes with 17' only, and look at that gap between the wheel and the fender, it's like a monster truck..

Either the 06-07 350 5 spoke, or the 08+ 350.

08+ 350 cause I think they're the cleanest and sleekest. And I have them and they look good on the side and angle!

The Lexus optional rims for the GS line are weak, personnally, I would never pay extra for them.

Same here. I think the g-spyders are not worth its price, you can buy higher quality rims for that price.
