Default SC430 on LFA Wheels

Has anyone seen an SC430 with the Replica LFA Wheels? I know the wheels are fairly new so I'm not sure if anyone has tried them. It would be nice to see a set on our cars though. Anyone a good photoshopper??

They look exactly like the OEM LFA wheels. I really want them but I don't know if they'll look good on the SC430. I'm picturing it in my head and I feel like they might be too aggressive looking.

Well, I tried. I put the 19" LFA wheel on the front and left my 18" wheel on the rear. Not the dramatic difference I was hoping for.

Great job on the Photochop! Although I'll have to agree, it isn't the dramatic effect I was hoping for too. I'm a bit disappointed tbh. Something just doesn't look right about it. Hmm...I wonder if it would look better in person. haha. Thanks again for the photochop!

My wheels came from an IS F sport. I can't figure out how to add a picture using my iPhone but I think if you click on my profile you can see picture.

Juli,

The 19" forged IS F-Sport wheels look nice on your SC430.

19 LFA REP I have these on my 06 Gs 430 and 2 out of 4 have hairline cracks around the lip no other damage (MFG Defect BAD CAST) I have had them less then a year and the company that manufactures them will not warranty them, the rep called me a bad driver lol My OEM wheels don't have cracks like this and those where on the car for years. I WOULD NOT BUY THESE WHEELS.

Cool White SC's look good!

Man, a white SC430 can pull off nearly any good lookin' wheel. That PB on the beach looks super fine with the photoshopped LFA's, and Juli's white SC looks fantastic with the IS F-Sport wheels. I think my OEM chrome wheels look good, but right now, I'm diggin' my new G-Spiders!
