Default *Updated pics of Niche wheels on my car

Since the tsw wheels are not good enough, what about these new Niche wheels???

They're built by MHT wheels.

20x8.5, 20x10

So are these considered "good enough" for the is350? Or only Vossen or higher end?

i dont think its a question of whether the wheels are good enough, its your car so YOU should decide whats good enough for it. you wana spend 2k or 6k on wheels? its all up to your budget.

i think niche makes some pretty nice wheel designs. the one you seleted is eh... personally i like the the Spa A220, but in a chrome or polished lip, not black.

Yeah those are sick, but they are 3piece wheels, so your talking $800.00 per wheel.

The reason I was asking if they were good enough is because on a previous thread i was considering TSW wheels and most were like get Vossens, and that the TSW's weren't nice enough for this car.

Its a big investment so I wanna make the best out of my budget.

That genesis looks great. Rims should be silver not white though. Also if the car was black, white or gunmetal it would look better. Nice car overall

Yeah those look really good. The Vossen wheels would cost me $700 more. I'm just not sure they will look $700 better.

I like them all. I wouldn't spend 6k on rims for I is350 but I do like the guys cars that actually do. If they look good to you and fit yourbudgetgo for them bro. The main approval is yours that really matters. I was about pull the trigger on some vossens but decided to get rohana rims and be different. Some don't like rohana but I like em so I am happy. But niche rims have always been nice to me.

I also want to know the opinion of peoples about these, don't want to know if they look nice or not but would like to know about the quality. They are made in Germany I think

Here's a real live shot of them, which I feel does them more justice.

I've decided to pull the trigger and get them, when I get them put on I'll post pictures. Should be by Thursday of next week.
