Wheel Opinions - RS4 vs CSL
I've always liked the RS4 wheels - similar to Forgestar F14's, but the spokes are a little more parallel. I'm not a fan of wheels with big lips.
I'm trying to decide between the two of these - What do you guys think looks better an IS?
CSL Style
Just for reference,
Forgestar F14 on an IS350.

I don't like the idea of getting OEM wheels from another manufacturer.

Well, they are replicas, not OEMs, but I see your point.
However, design is design - what's the difference between this and several different cars putting on the same aftermarket wheel?

I'll vote for the RS4. I think it's fine to get other manufaturer's OEM wheels, as long as you replace the center caps.

THe Toms wheels look great. Leave the OEMish look to Audi and BMW.

I think I like the CSL a little better.
