That advertisement isn't put together very well. They say you can get 19x8 all around or 19x8 and 19x9.5 for a staggered set? They dont even mention the offset, plus they jacked up the price lol.

Edit: Actually i think that is another replica. There is another seller from Australia, and this one states 19x8 +45

I was just posting things I found, lol. They might not even be made by the same people, who knows.

(It is a bad ad, I agree).

Interesting..

 

Off topic, but I never understood how this seller could get 100% positive feedback selling replica wheels for so long.

 

yea i bought the originals because they were forged BBS so I knew they were quality and light weight. Also on the originals you have to get a set LR, LL, RR, RL. this is marked on the inside of each wheel. Not sure if this would mess up your stance. I just think these might weigh down an IS250 and make it even slower lol (not hating cause i have a 250). For the price id give it a go assuming quality was not as big of an issue. Also I like this style over all the other ISF wheels especially that W snow flake looking one in 2010 I think looked like a VW logo lol.

 

Yea, the originals are nice but the specs are too conservative for what i want.

Update: I contacted the seller asking if the picture provided was of the rep wheels in order to test their honesty. They replied saying that they got that picture online and it is most likely the authentic wheels. He said they currently dont have pictures of the wheels installed because the reps just came out.

 

here are some pics of the real thing, crappy cell pics but you get the idea, i think it looks nice. last mods will be isf corners, 09 side mirrors, and fsport suspension.

 

I got ya, yea if you wanna go hella flush i say go for it, he seemed to be honest about the pics so that has to make you feel a little better. Let me know how it goes I was considering doing these on my SC430 but i need a more aggressive set up than this.

 

Here's your answer my brother!...

 

Well if you look out some details for the seller, hes been registered like said before for about 10 years, August 01. Hes been selling better rims than isf and has 100% still, it looks legit and trustable... at least for me...

 

Looks nice, but so expensive

 

Did you buy the wheels from that seller?

 

You do realize that it's $695 for a set of 4 wheels right? I'm guessing you thought that was the price per wheel

No, that member posted pics of his authentic IS-F wheels

 

Funny how things work - I was just looking at these wheels two days ago and all of a sudden we have a dedicated thread. lol. I have to admit, the rep's look good and the setup is more aggressive than OEM. Although, OEM is probably stronger and lighter and I've come across a set for $1800. Just don't know if it's worth it to go replica when after all is said and done I'll be in about $1200. I'm leaning towards OEM. Thoughts?

 

IMO, I would not spend $1800 on a set of OEM Lexus wheels

There are some great aftermarket wheels for a little more
