Seriously?

I also don't think they are awful....but I would never pick them over the original stock rims that we have. To each their own.

Hey, that's my winter package. I needed wheels to take delivery, as it was still winter. They offered those as an option that will clear the BBK. My options were limited. They aren't bad, but OEM still rocks!

I think they are ugly, two thumbs up!

The IS-F is ugly, that's why I like it.

They really look small too. I thought they would look better in person too. If they were 20"ers and still the same weight my opinion would be a lot different.

I'm glad the original IS-F wheels are still being offered, they have that Samurai sword look (intentional IIRC), I wonder what the inspiration was for the new ones.

Yes.. the 18" G-Spiders make a great Winter Wheel set up....

Did they give you the OEM staggered set up??


Again, they make great winter wheels.....
