LFA prototype rims were better than the production version
I though the prototypes were unique and looked great so I'm really surprised they replaced them with the new version which is very similair to a lot of other rims already on the market. Plus the new ones look smaller visually compared to the prototypes

As with many supercars, and certainly for the *first* modern supercar from a manufacturer, there are going to be wildly different opinions; I'll just agree to disagree regarding whether the LFA is a worthy effort (IMO yes). As for the rims, I was initially afraid they were going to be simple five-spokes based on the Crystallised Wind concept, but the production model shows they are five-spoke shape but with ten bars.

They can probably look at real cars like they are 1:18 models

Love those LFA wheels! Looks especially good in the gunmetal color.
Sorry a bit OT: I really wish Lexus used that exact back end. Love the L-shape of those tail lights and the general curve of the rear makes it look sexier while reducing the visual impact of those giant side vents on the rear view.
