Default IS-F Factory wheels

I love the dark colored factory IS-F wheels.

what is the technical name of the color?

does anyone know of other aftermarket wheel companies that offer their wheels with the same color finish? please provide names or pics.

thanks,
ted

It's just "Graphite" 10 spoke alloy wheels made by BBS specifically for Lexus.

WHILE i REALLY LIKE THESE wheels, there is no possible way that they cost $8,000. ($2,000 X 4).

come on, $8,000 on wheels when the car goes for $58 - $63,000? doesn;t seem logical or possible.

Check eBay there are a couple of sets that are going at a fraction of that price

They are forged. Price out some forged wheels and you will see that they get pricey.

I was told by my dealer that my IS-F wheels cost $4,000 a piece at the time of purchasing the car. :x
