Ok, I've been listening to you all and I will not buy any of those wheels that I posted. I'll probably never buy HRE, Lorinser for this GS maybe next gen if I get it and when I gain access to my trust fund. Meanwhile I'm thinking about paying a few hundred extra for Momo. Tell me what you think.

Well I guess they where kind of lame. It's just that they have nothing here. I've never seen a GS with aftermarket wheels. I can't get Lsportline and other Lexus rims here.If I import rims I'll probably pay 25% for the custom and another 25% for tax plus shipping.

Whoa, that is tough. Hmmm, PM Richie possibly he may be able to help, I know he's in Europe as well. TRD or TTE parts are not sold there? I bought fake wheels before and I got rid of em in 6 months cause they were crap and bent real easy.

Im not an expert in this field, but I do not think your prices are going to be incredibly higher than in the States. A lot of the better wheels have to be imported from Japan. If you shop around or even buy used you might be suprised. Have you looked at TTE or other high-quality brands around there?

Finally I found rims of good quality that will fit my car. They cost about 2500 so I really need to get a job first. I don't have much to choose from in this price range. It seems like the people here don't care about quality rims as much in the states. I couldn't find TTE or TRD over here. The rims I'm dreaming about is ATP flash and I would get the 19 inch version even if it would make the comfort of the car go away.
