I am LORD OF THE BLINGS!!!!!=) 19s ON!!
these are 19x8 with 28 offset. The outer rims and spokes are polished silver and the insides are high gloss black and the screws for the piece wheels are GOLD!!! Unfortunately i had to put a 3mm spacer in the back and only then did it clear it by a few mms. Very very close but so far so good.
These wheels are Made in Taiwan and they are called EVOLVE.
Also comfort has suffered a bit and i can hear tire drones at low speeds from these p-zero Scorpions 255/50/19s.
If u want to change wheels on ur RX........DONT DO IT!!!=) Its too much trouble, just ask me!!!
So, i'll be one of the few who is GHETTO-FABULOUS!!!

Johns...
Those are nice. Just curious, how were you able to swap rims this whole time? The store actually lets you test the rims before you buy? How much USD? Nice nice.... Looks like the L sportlines...

I went to 3 different wheel shops, i said, i will pay ONLY if it fits, so they ordered everything and i didnt want spacers. I dont even like these that i got at first. I liked the Lorinser one much better, it truely looks PIMP on our cars!! But they dont fit. So today, i went to this last shop which was very helpful and ordered these wheels factory direct and with the cheapest prices for tires and everything, so i went with them. Its US$1600 for everything! An ok deal i guess.

Nice John,
I wish the stores here did that. Ususally they have you pic the rims from a catalog and they always say it'll fit. Guess they're wrong. Nice rims for $1600 and 19's and tires... whoa!!! nice nice

Actually they ONLY export to the U.S and other markets, they are not suppose to sell it here! Everybody here goes for 18s or less because of the "moon-surface" roads here. So, can i say im the only one with these 19s here???? .....................YES!!!

Hey John,
Can the store ship them here to the US? I'm sure shipping is expensive, but for $1600 USD with tires, you can't beat that. Can you find out how much to ship to San Francisco, CA USA would be?
A store quoted me $3000 with tires for Made in Taiwans too. I forgot the brand though, but it was 18's that looked like three pieces.
Wow, 19's, I never thought about that. I thought, for me, jumping from 16" to 18's was crazy, but to 19"-20's (DUB), man!!!!!

no, i dont think the store will ship to the states. But i ask shipping from L.A to Taipei for a set of wheels i was gonna get, and the air freight, taxes, everything amounts to around $250. So going back from here should be the same or less.

With the exception of the gold on the wheels, I think the tire/wheel combo looks excellent! And look at the amount of plants in the background Nice picture.
John, What is that black I always see on your front bumper??
