Have your wheels painted locally or add a few hundred $ more and get the F-Sport.

why dont u just powder coat your stock wheels? instead of buying another set and having them painted? even better save and get some after market wheels?

dunno how id personally feel about em on sgm, but if its what suits your style, by all means the price is decent considering its new wheels already powdercoated (if im correct), but you might be able to just buy the same wheels and get em coated locally for cheaper.

ive actually thought of getting my 17s powdercoated the same, dont think itll look that bad, actually...lol. need the drop though

good luck with wutcha do, cant wait for pics if you do it!

All black wheels will make your 18" wheels look like 16" wheels. If you're looking into flat black wheels look into these.

They have 2 different front wheels for the IS350 or the IS250. (caliper clearance)

buy if you want since you know you'll get a set that are good quality if it's coming from sewell... any problems they should be able to take care of it. some advise though sell your old set if you do purchase and that'll hopefully make up the difference of the hassle and pwdr coat

I'm thinkin about powdercoating my g-spyders. Any input on the finish? I was thinkin either a gloss black or a gunmetal finish.
