Anyone got a Five AD wheel other than the S5:F? Don't get me wrong, its a nice looking rim - but its the only design that I've seen.

They have 4 or 5 designs, but their Project ISF was a great advertising tool for the S5:F.

Your F-Sport wheels and the FiveAxis wheels have more in common than you might realize...

They have several other designs, but only a few that I think would flow well with a Lexus. This is a two-piece forged wheel that I've loved ever since I saw it at SEMA two years ago, and I think it would look fantastic on an IS:





Here's their latest design, the R5:F featured on the Project: GS unveiled at SEMA last year:

Wow, that does look good! Nice job, I think the front wheel is faced the wrong way though? I'd like to see these in real life on our IS'.
