Great wheels for the money! I believe yours are flow forged. Im considering the konig oversteers. Deciding on wheels is the toughest thing . .

yes they are! And I can't remember if they're flow forged or not tbh. I was stuck on getting the TSW Nurburgring for so long but they were just a little to pricey for me.

Here's our 2008 IS250 with 18" Konig Oversteer wheels. The chrome on our 18" OE wheels started coming off with chloride Oregon puts on the roads during the winter, so we replaced the rims with these. The front are 18X8 like OE, but the rear are slightly wider at 18X9. The rear stance is really nice now with the slightly wider wheel. We're happy with them.

18x8 ET38 (225/40) all-around, I would've gone with wider rear wheels but those were not available. H&R -35mm springs.
@Wrauda What are those rims? Looks really sleek

Looks good anapro, you can always put a spacer in the rear to eliminate that sunken in look

I used to be into the "dumped" look when I was 18-21 but now that I am older (nearly 30) and paying roughly 900 a month for a car it doesnt seem to make sense to take the chance of having it damaged due to normal driving.

Now, I just want something that looks nice, rides nice, offers good performance and make me smile when I "occasionally" feel like going through some twistys.
Your description of what you are looking for in a car sounds like me...accept i would add a good sound system like the ML systems haha
