There aren't tons of great Lexus wheels out there compared to other manufacturers. Especially Infiniti/Nissan

Get the rubber/plastic. The metal will seize on your wheel/hub

Got my tires balanced today and it rides like new ... guy at the wheel shop told me to have them balanced every 3 months. Not sure if that's a good measure but wouldn't hurt.

the vibration is definitely because of the missing hubcentric rings...i've had g37s and 370z wheels on my 2GS before and had the same initial issues before my rings arrived. rode perfect once installed.

if you hvae the center caps...pop out the emblems and put them on, the non-center cap look is an eye-sore for the wheels.

as for non-lexus wheels on a Lexus...don't really see the issue, they're great designs and reputable wheels at that. the 370z volk forged wheels are a huge upgrade to the 2GS IMO

I think these suit the car very well. If I coulda got some gs-f wheels I'd have went for them. I'm happy with the look of these, they match the gold nicely.

I ordered the rings off eBay, hopefully they get here soon. I can't take the shake.
