That pricing is sick (but typical for oem). Those wheels,19" one-piece BBS, should be less than five thousand for the set. (or <$1250 per wheel ) I'm sure they will have a few nibbles even at those prices.

G-spiders are my choice in the poll, btw.

True, but I think the X-package wheels make the IS 250 line look more like a Pontiac G6 and, that my friends, is not http://www.pontiac.com/g6sedan/index...008&useFlash=Y

I figured I'd post it here. Just got some spider's with PS2 rubber.


Please note: lowering is NOT an option.

I think they all suck. I think the G-spiders are the best though, followed closely by the stock 18s. I cant believe so many people like those X-package wheels, I think they are terrible! Id rather have my lame AWD 17" wheels :-)

I would love the IS-F wheels!

FYI for all of you who might not know.

you might wonder why the X-PKG wheels are expensive at the dealership. First of all the X-PKG wheels are made in japan and second they are made by enkei wheels with the new MAT technology.

I bought a set of the X-PKG wheels on ebay as dealer take off for $1500 with tires which had about 200 miles on them.

I personally like them, but if I had a choice now I would go for IS F neiman marcus speical ed. wheels.

I saw it in person and i just kept looking at the wheels for 10 minutes. They are different the regular IS F wheels, each spoke has a slight chrome touch to it.

Ouch.

My bias leads to the x-package, but I like the g-spiders too.
