Wheels advice
Hi guys. Already for a month i cant find decent wheels for my gs430. When i say decent i want something of a good quality and price. I am not looking for crazy priced wheels which are 1000 usd for one. I like xxr but their offset of +15 is not good for me.PLease advice on any other brands which are known for good quality and price? Please dont waste your time saying that xxr is a rep and so on...
I want something in 20 inch.I will drop it a bit but nothing crazy.

save more $$$ and buy quality wheels...please. yes, XXR is rep & cheap quality....lol, sorry gotta say it. you can afford GS430, u should put a nice shoes on her.
get a used vossen wheels WITH tires for $1400-$2500, thats like $450-$650/wheel+tire
tell us your budget, search on wheels classified section.
If you ended up getting XXR, it's your money anyway, try not to post your car picture in here otherwise people will flame you.

Its not that I do not have money to buy them its just I believe I am not at that stage yet. I am just 22 and i cant justify spending that much money on vossens or so.I also live in NZ so even xxr with tyres will cost me over 3000. Vossens will be over 5000. XXR are good. I have 18 installed on my tt supra with bpu(around 400 hp) and i am happy with them so far. If i would live in Canada or USA i would buy vossens in a heart bit but not here...

Thats what i have.Fresh import from japan with 10750 Km and 5A grade.But first thing i want to do is to replace the wheels.Want them to be flush with the fenders.And drop it a little bit(2-3cm between the tyres and fenders)

Bigfox, you live in a country where even cheap XXR's are paid for with a premium, I don't think our reccomendations could justify your wants unfortunately. You might be lucky going to a LOCAL forum and finding out rather than the Lexus forums.
Here all the wheel guru's can tell you is which offset and which size wheel you can fit in your car.

I am looking everywhere.most of the places ship for 750 or so usd to me on top I have to pay 15% GST and customs.Considering some mmr,niche, stance wheels. Do you have any experience or can suggest another brand?tsw is ok but a bit pricy.Would love if you could suggest a web site with good prices as well.
