the plasti-dip'd rear lights don't bother me as much as the wheels. they look hideous and look way too busy.
i would get a refund for however much you paid for them and go back to OEM wheels until you can afford a nicer-looking set of wheels - even if said second set of wheels are knock-offs/replicas.
after all, if you're going to buy some made-in-china wheels, at least buy something that's eye-catching.

Like others have said, I would have to agree, not really feeling the rims at the moment. Maybe if you lowered the car a little, it might like the rims better. LOL
I know you said the roads are terrible over there, but if you got coils, you could adjust the height. Just a little drop makes a huge difference. I actually don't mind the tail lights, in the sun, they don't look that dark. Any plans for future mods?

$230 per wheel is quite cheap, but even if they weren't cheap, they look cheap. The tail lights look pretty bad too.
All that said, as long as you like it, and don't think they look cheap. Thumbs up for doing what you want, ignore people who don't like it.
Car would definitely look nice if it was lowered a bit.![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

question is, what does Saemie Corporation have to do with the Bremmer Kraft brand? (answer: Saemie Corporation = parent company = import wheels manufacturered in china)
so what was that about those wheels not being cheap or not made in china? right...
welcome to CL.

i certainly hope you didn't pay more than $800-something for a set, because vivid racing has them for $217.35 per wheel. hard to believe knock-off wheels don't come cheap nowadays (they look mighty close to Vossen 082's), but i digress.

You make it sound like things made in china are a bad thing? Some people kill me with "its made in China tho". Companies get things made in China because it's cheaper for them and the quality is still good. To be honest people sometimes get something wrong with an item that's made in China. That's cause they make EVERYTHING!! now a days. Compared to other countries China still has the least "messed UP products" ratio compared to production. You see when the Olympics were held in China? That was off the hook, the shows, the lights, the coordination. You see how many gold medals they win each year? Every big league "major" company has standards that have to be met regardless of where an item is manufacturer.

Hey seano welcome to CL. I know u have been getting bashed on the look but u did ask for people's opinions.
I agree with everyone though u really need to lower ur ride. I don't think its the wheels that are the issue its that it doesn't sit well with the aggressiveness of the wheels that you are @ stock height. Plus it would look a lot better if u wash ur car first before posting cuz it looks half-assed that u have a dirty car but very shiny wheels. Especially since you are driving a Lexus u gotta have more respect for your baby.
As for the plasti-dip lights its not bad looks like u smoked it out. Im not a big fan on smoked tail lights but it looks good just as if u put vinyl over it.

If you like the rims thats fine, its your car not ours. But you claim your wheels were not cheap, but you paid $230 per wheel? Thats cheap dude.
He was only giving you knowledge about your wheels that you didnt know bc you did say

Nice post Bob. OP, you asked for people's thought, and they gave them to you. Take it for what its worth. I think the point of this forum is to help a lot of people get a certain 'look' with their car. If you don't like what everyone is saying, close the thread and move on.
