Default Ok I Need Help Deciding on new set of wheels

I have the chrome 5 spoke lexus 18" rims on my car but after seeing a few SCs on the forums with nice 20"s i've decided to change mine too. I found this what do you guys think? I am open to suggestions links, vendors, etc Thanks in advance!

Wheels are a tough one, I was looking for months before I found this style that I liked.



I was going to get used, but decided to listen to SCDROPTOP, on finding new on ebay. Too many bent, repaired, damaged rims out there, and the cost on ebay is not so much. I bought them off this link, for $1800 with tires, so as you can see sellers are very willing to negotiate. He went down 400 and responded to my offer in 15 minutes. He might have gone lower. I will post pics when the new shoes are on lucky.

Now I am hoping I can get a few bucks for my perfect condition Pie Plates

Alterious-I love what you've selected. I think they would look great. Nice lip. Good price. I think others will tell you to try to find used wheels that are a better brand, but as I've mentioned dozens of times I like the price point you are at with staggered, chrome, new wheels no issues, etc. The bottom line after it's all said and done is: do you like them?

I like the only reason i posted the ebay one because i couldn't find a picture there is a guy locally selling them and he is willing to take $700 with tires, he had him on his gs300 and he is upgrading to 22" he said there is nothing wrong with them, but i am not familiar with that brand so i thought i'd ask and see if u guys like the design as well. The only problem is that they are all 20x8.5s and i wanted to get 20x9 in the front and 20x10.5s for rear so i wanted to get something with a huge lip like this one 6" lip i think that's awesome! and they are chrome but i am thinking if i go with the 20x8.5s all the way around will it still have the sporty look?
