HELP!!! I don't know which wheel to pick!!
These are my choices. Whichever I pick, they will be in 19". Which would you guys pick? If I get the blitz, it would be a waiting period on them, so I don't know!!

From the choices you have listed, I'd go with the first wheel. It's got a good deep-dish look to it (just my opinion). By the way, since you're lookin into 19' wheels, have you seen the AXIS se7en 3-piece modular wheels? 3-piece design with a deep-dish look..best of both worlds.

First wheel is Hamann which is a nono because you should never use BMW tuner wheels on Lexus.
Axis is a knock-off company and I doubt its quality. Don't even mention how cheap it is to steal other people's designs.
Nice cars use nice wheels. Don't ruin that.
go with Z1s.

I knew those rims looked familiar!! 
I didn't realize they were Hamann. Since that is the case, I agree with Globe, you shouldn't get bmw rims on a lexus. Although AXIS is a knock-off company, the 3-piece se7ens are one of the best lookin rims I've seen. And considering the fact that they are custom order wheels, I'm guessin that they aren't all that cheap. I personally wouldn't consider buying Axis rims either but I think the 3-piece se7ens are an exception. Unfortunately though, the fact that they only come in a 19' size makes my decision NOT to get them easy. I was only just bringing them to Lexus_IS300's attention becase he mentioned that he wanted 19's. No harm no foul..

Even though Axis makes knockoffs the 3 piece seven wheel like ro-lex said is custom. The only car that has them on is the owner of Axis on his yellow Ferrari the one that's on the Axis website. I asked about those wheels at NOPI and I was told they are made to order and might run almost a $1000 a wheel in a 19.

I personally like the looks of the Hamann, but instead of that particular wheel, I would prefer to go with the Hamann PG II. Racing Harts aren't available in the width I would want though, although I do like it. But my first choice is the Hamann.
