those 19s are probably heavy as hell. look into 18s if youre going to go with that wheel.

honestly, those wheels will probably look good on your car. if you dont mind the build quality and weight of these wheels, go for it.

before you commit to buying these, id browse the wheel classifieds here, and the sale/trade section over at is300.net

So consider this....pretend my two photoshops are rims......which would you prefer, the high quality or knockoff

thought about that but pretty much any chrome 19" wheel is going to be heavy... copy or not!

i see, nice e46 with MVR's. Always liked those rims.

Anyway, then you shoulda got a GS3. But hey it's your car, why wouldn't you put nice rims on the IS3 like you did with the Bimmer?

why it had to be a hard headed bmw owner...lol look guy, i got a set of knock off rims, and it looks all bling bling, but the finish is not tip top and the lips are nice but its not as big and thick as it should be.

Atleast get some quality used rims........dont put more shame upon lexus....

Kaotik wheels would be tight, if they didnt SUCK!! you drive that bimmer with that setup? i would think kaotik wouldnt even be an option.if you want big and chrome, which i am partial to myself, then do it, but do it right.Chrome only looks good when its still on the wheel, and hasnt started flaking and chipping after a year of driving/cleaning.Question though, what kinda prices have you been quoted on the Kaotiks? maybe you mentioned that before, but i didnt see it I am sure the wheel pros on here can get you something comparable for @ the same price range, but in a higher quality wheel.Dont get angered here, people are just trying to help you out well most of 'em anyways
