Default How many oem IS wheels are available?

You guys now me, I would easily find the answer but I have been lurking around for a while and I can find the whole list of oem wheels for the IS. I'm missing some photos, please complete the list.

I need this info fast cause I'm about to finalized my negotiation to get my IS.

1) 18-in G-Spider alloy wheels



2) 18-in ISP Mode alloy wheels



3) 10-spoke, 17-in aluminum alloy



4) 10-spoke,18-in aluminum alloy



5) Five-spoke, 18-in aluminum alloy

6) X-Package, 18-in aluminum alloy

Warrionex - the five-spoke, 18-in aluminum alloy IS the X-package, 18-inch aluminum alloy:

Yeah that's about it... I wanted the X-package but obviously being in Canada you can only have one option pack. So for me it was the rims I wanted vs. everything else.

Although the X wheels look a little too much like any other Japanese wheel. The stock 18s and the Gs are my faves.

OP, I think #5 is called split 5 spoke and #6 is the 5 spoke for the sport pack.

The 16" one does not look that bad at all.

Which market(s) get the 16" wheel? And let's not forget that the dealer often does CHROME versions of these wheels which changes the look entirely.

Just take delivery with the wheels that come on the car...hopefully the standard/available Split 5 spoke 18"s

Then you can buy a secondary set of one of the 18" Accesory Wheels for around $800 or soo..

You will save a ton of money and you'll have a spare set of wheels to keep in the garage or sell off for some cash...

Thanks a lot fellow members!

Apparently, everything changed for the good with me. After 7 months of intense negotiations, I'm pretty close of bringing home a 2007 IS250 RWD Black on Black with the X-package. I have got a super huge discount under the regular selling price for this one of the kind IS. Let me tell you I have never seen such a big discount before anywhere in CL. The car is pretty unique, I have seen only one IS in PR with this package and it was in another color. This baby comes with aluminum trim (no wood for me, yes!).

I will keep you posted of the final specs and yes, the pics are coming soon!!

Best regards to everyone! I'm going to get the car tomorrow (Sunday) @ 11:00 am sharp.

Yes! Chrome makes all the rims look totally different!
