I can't decide between the GS 450h wheels and the '06-'07 18" wheels. I like the simplicity of the '06-'07s, and the detail in the 450h rims.

I like how clean and complex the Tourmalines look. The polished texture is also very unique to the line-up (looks great on an SC430 too... ).

Not too simple like the 5-spokes alloys, and not too busy like the graphite G-Spiders and alloy+chrome 450h. The Tourmalines provide a good balance.

2011 GS450h wheels...

I believe these GS450h wheels were introduced in 2010-2011...I have yet to see another owner with these wheels.

Any way to edit the poll to reflect these wheels?

I had the tourmaline wheels and 450h and loved the 450h wheels more than anything.
