Question What rims are on the (Baby-G_tuned09_mid) gallery image

Hello All! I am the proud new parent of a 2001 silver GS300. I was looking through the gallery and came across this photo:

https://www.clublexus.com/cgi-bin/cl...S&tt=&bool=and

I was wondering if anyone knows what size, and brand of rims those are. I am looking for something similar for my ride. I think those rims compliment a silver GS perfectly. Whoevers car that is, NICELY DONE!!

Thanks for your help!

-Jason

Will,
you said it's a copy of WEDS? do you mean knockoffs? how can you tell??


DJ,
if you are interested, let me know, maybe we can order together and get a better deal.

lex,

i prefer not to use the word "knock-off" as not to offend anyone...."copies" is a bit milder in tone.

well this type of wheel design 1st came out in japan in early 2000, at the time, there are many variation of this design, including one on of my fav WORK EUROLINE S2
the prices of these rims are actualy very reasonable in japan(less than $2k for 18s)

then since the beginning of this year, i start seeing many wheels here in the US have identical design. not to ofend anyone, just stating the fact that i know...

Will,

I have finally decided on the Weds kranze, I guess at this point, I don't mind the knockoff factor as much, as long as the quality if good.

I am very close to order these rims, any last minute suggestions or recommendations as to not to get them?

LexusRules, do you know who makes those rims by any chance? Possibly a link to a site that caries them?

Thanks
