if i saw those off the car i would think they are ugly, but on the car they look suprisingly very good, would look even better with Lexus center caps

But with VIP tires I would have definitley gone with way more aggresive offsets.

The tsuna (knot) and fusa (tassels) surprisingly dont seem to block much, they actually hang about 3-4in infront the a/c vents so its not like its up against the windshield, besides its full of holes too
