Default Wheels

Hey guys,
I'm kinda new to this forum but just wanted to ask a question... i have a white IS 350.. loving it. I just want to make my car stand out and/or look special so I'm thinking about putting new wheels on it...

I was tossing up between the Volk Progressive ME or the AME Tracer FS-01's... does anyone have the AME's??
What do you guys reccomend...? I was thinkin about 19's

Oh yeah... I'm from the Dallas area .. if anyone has the Volk or the AME's for sale or knows anyone that has them please let me know...

Thanks guys
I'd greatly appreciate you opinions/pictures... i know people have the volk's and i've seen em but does anyone have the AME's yet?

Thanks...

We have a set of the FS-01's on order for a customers car in 18" Sapphire Black. Give me a call tomorow and I'll give you some details on available sizing for the different finishes (its sort of odd for the different finishes)

Actually, rocketman is here from dallas and he ordered the AME Tracer FS-01's. like 6 weeks ago. He should be getting them any time soon. Both wheels are very nice. Either way, make up your mind soon, because there will be about a 2-3 month wait for either one.
