Default Wheels from an '06 IS250 to an '09?

I have an 09 IS250 and I'm considering buying some used wheels from someone that was using them on his '06 IS250.

Are there any major differences between the 06 and the 09 that would not allow me to use these wheels??

Thanx.

They have the same bolt pattern so it will fit.

If you like the 06 design, get the 08, it has a different color finish, just like the 09.

That will be the easiest (no problems) wheel upgrade possible.

i mean it looks the best on any colour ... the 18inch rims on the 09 only looks good on a obsidian IS .. which is what i have right now ...

the 08 wheels have a darker finish .. which makes it look very nice i will try to find some pics to show u

How much do the OEM wheels normally sell for? The 17" specifically.
