Default Momo Forged 19" wheels opinion

Hey everyone I have these wheels on my IS350 right now but I do not like it. What do you guys think of them? Should I change them. Are these wheels considered cheap or expensive?

They look pretty good. I remember Momo being a hot brand back in the day, like mid 90's. I'm assuming they still should be a quality brand.

Mono wheels are good quality for the price.

LFA replicas would be a nice upgrade.

Momo has a history of being good Italian wheels and steering wheels and shift *****. 5 star wheels are all over the place but these don't look bad. Can you post a pic? I've never seen these wheels or any newer Momo wheels.

Sure! Let me know what you think. I am thinking of getting IS-F oem rims or LFA replicas.

They look okay... But I would honestly look for something else. The LFA replicas are nice. Don't get me wrong MOMO is a well known Italian design wheel that is definitely better quality than most. For me I actually like the concave look or something with a lip. Your MOMOs have the lip but that center part looks convex and takes away from the look.

Ya as the other guys have mentioned keep them till you find a nice set.
