As far as the topic goes, those wheels don't look half bad actually. If you were slammed I think they'd look very nice. As other people have said, reminds me of the IS wheels.
at least the op did the right thing and fixed the center caps to show the lexus logo. that's all it takes as long as the wheels look good. And all these factory wheels are made by Enkie or BBS, or some other wheel maker anyways. Like you said, it all comes down to personal opinions.

I was being nice about it quite frankly. There will be a bridge built from America to the Nurburgring before I put Hyundai wheels on my Lexus.
I agree with sick on this 100%.
It was bad enough guys were putting BMW and Nissan wheels on Lexus.
Now Hyundai???
I don't believe in cross-breeding wheels.

If you want to see a new low, 2IS guys are putting Honda exhaust tips on their cars
