Nice find! Wheels are pretty gross. Doesn't fit the car at all. But LSD is nice. I want to see them run the new car around the track to see if there are improvements.

Considering the 2010's will most likely become "Special Order Only", maybe they will give the option of ordering different wheels.

Will see..

They remind me of a wheel option on Acura cars.

Thanks.. That was great of you.. But we still can't see it..

Tiny pic is blocked on some larger company server firewalls..

Maybe use the Club Lexus gallery or attachement option within a post..

I think the wheels are alright.. They kinda remind me of the mesh wheels with incredibly low offsets found on 240's and 86's.

I like the wheels...a creative variation on a couple BBS themes integrated. I just hope they are still forged and light...

I'd have to see the whole car to have context, and they do look harder to clean but I think I like them too.
