Rare because they were Step lipped T1s on 19s. Usually step lips are on 20s. Everyone else has the regular T1s. They were that special chrome color too. RBC or WBC something like that. Pay attention to detail and you might catch that.

Some way or another every IS x50 looks the same, funny thing is that you don't run into the ones that look the same as you very often. Again Aliu, looks nice and clean!

no need to get angry guys haha...i do know they're rare, but i liked the look of the iforged on my car. if you think about it though, that color of those iforged is discontinued, so i guess these are even more rare!! hahaa or not iono. hopefully my car comes out better when i do an actual photoshoot

It will look a lot better, maybe if you do a full exterior detail as well. It'll make your paint pop and the photo's will come out even better!

yea that's what i'm trying to do! the only reason why i hesitate to spend hours detailing and washing my car is because the garage where my car is parked is really dirty, and i know after a night there, my roof and hood and rear are gona be covered in white flakes from the ceiling of the garage -_-

Hit it with 2 stages of Menzerna polish, jet seal sealant, then Swissvax Wax and those white flakes will only glide off the paint

I know what you mean b/c I have to park my car outside sometimes too
