With so many people rocking so many of the same wheels it's alright to be different. Could be just my perspective, but anyone can make damn near any rim look good if it's stanced just right and the car sits low enough. With the undertanding that the wheel isn't the ugliest set of wheels on the planet, of course.

In my opinion, anything over 18'' rims on these cars just look terrible. These cars are not "ballin", "pimpin", "ghetto", "gangsta", or anything else like that. It kind of pisses me off when I see some horribly molested SC on stupid chrome wheels that are way too big for the car. The black rims look better than those horrible chrome rims you had on, but they're still too big.

Treat an SC with dignity. It's not some big Cadillac, and it certainly isn't a "bling" car.

I think we should all just roll around in stock wheels. =) As you can see, you're rolling in a once MSRP $50k car, how can you find wheels with better quality than stock? After all, Lexus is the pursuit of perfection. We should all just slap 17+ wheels from the ES/GS/IS/F-Sport onto our cars.

Of course this is also my personal opinion, sexy interior swap.

Like someone else said, I think "stancing" the car is the most important. This will be more important than a body kit, 97+ bumpers, 19's, or whatever else you have planned. Get the stance right and you're in the money.

Thanks for all you guys suggestions and comments.
I have decided to put my car back to stock for the time being.
stock wheels, lights etc. Im gonna start all over again, mostly after winter.
But, I needed brakes so I just installed some crossed drilled and slotted rotors.

Till then, this is how im rolling........

A kit, lowered a little, and good fitting wheels will make the car. Good luck, and dont let these people put you down, at the end of the day its your car and you can do whatever you want too it.
Its cool. I get a kick otta everyone comments. especially the ones who cars suck...lol!!! Wish i had a sc when i was a teen. do your thing little brother.
