I hate when people do that, why ruin a nice gunmetal finish like that. Sometimes black wheels look good on black cars, but for those 7 spokes, painting them black is just... why.

Exactly my reaction!
But to each his own. I saw an RC-F with pinstripes the other day. I wanted to have the owner arrested

I hated the stock 7 spoke wheels any time I saw them. Then after looking at them more I do really enjoy them, I actually think they are very under rated. I have the 20 spoke wheels on mine which was a requirement but I have always loved the above GSF wheels. They look so nice and are classy to me.

It's a shame Lexus doesn't offer the GSF wheels for the RCF.

Agreed, I'd seriously consider the GS-F wheels on my next RCF if it were an option.

Eh, not too bad. It has some gloss which makes it alright, I believe the GS F wheels painted black don't look too bad as there is some depth to the wheel spokes (unlike the 7 spoke RC F wheel), and it also helps that it appears your car is silver. Silver car with black deep spoke wheels? Sure, why not.
