I've decided to keep my snow tires on my OEM 16" wheels and get some 17" rims. I'm looking for a more subtle/OEM look. Only exterior mods that I have is the trunk lip spoiler. I've looked at a bunch of rims and narrowed it down to these, any additional suggestions are welcome.

Any opinions? (excuse the quick chops)

I like either the second or third one. But then again, I'm bias towards 5 spoke rims. Good luck finding your rims, and posts lots of pics when you are done.

yeah, for the price you are going to pay for crap wheels, you might as well just get stockers

The stock 17" wheels look a lot better.

How much are you willing to spend? I have some 17" Work VS-xx wheels for sale:

Honestly I was leaning towards more spokes until I chopped those 2 5 spokers on. Now I'm leaning towards the 5 spokes and you may be right.

Do the stock 17s come in Silver finish? I'm not crazy about chrome.

Are these ebay wheels legit? They seem awful cheap.

Whoops that price is only for one wheel.

What about the IS's 17" wheels?

The width is narrower and more conservative. The stock wheels are already pretty sunken in, you don't want it even more sunk in.

If you must do 17"s I would go with the factory ones.

The GS is a pretty large car, I would try to go 18" minimum. Alot of those ebay 17's are so cheap because they are not made for your Lexus, then the vendor wants to send you huge spacers when you say they dont fit. Caveat Emptor and happy hunting.

Heres the MRR HR2's I'd go for these in 18"

I agree-oem 17s look better than any of those wheels. plus they are hubcentric and less likely to vibrate.

there are oem 18s too.

Yeah those HR2's are HOT and I did come across them in my 'studies'

The problem with 18" rims is that the car needs to be lowered to look right. I'd look like a 4x4 with 18" rims on stock height. I'm not ready to lower the car. I'm content with the handling and ride as is (it keeps me in check )

oem 18's ...I don't feel any difference in ride quality...actually I think better..less body roll with the wider wheel.
