What do you guys think of these - Konig Imagine 19" on an IS. Someone offered to trade me my 18" for these. Are these too old for the lexus? I have a 2009 lexus is250. Should i get them?

I stay away from Konig, XXR and Rotas like the plague they are. MikeZ had a set of Konigs and after 1 pothole, the barrel cracked in half. (He drives like a grandma so no, he wasn't speeding into the pothole)

Both look terrible, Konigs are POS rims, had them on my Prelude back in HS. I'd opt for some LFA reps on something

Ehhh, they're alright... Visually, they look better and will probably fit the car a little better but they aren't that great.

What part of CA are you in?

They are not visually pleasing.

Since you already have rims, you should save that money and put it towards dropping your car. Lowering your car with your current set (or even stocks) will make it look better than switching wheels.
