Yeah, generally chrome wheels do not look good on sporty cars. Also depends on the style of the wheels. Like somebody else has said, the spokes are too narrow and leave too much space in between, just a very unattractive look for the car.

IMO, I can't stand Konig in general.

Stocks are nicer.

Sorry Omar, but those rims cheapen the appearance of your Lexus.

Powdercoat those stocks to gunmetal for a sportier look (+ a drop).

Not a fan of the Konigs. I love chrome, but not these.
