New black wheels (20's), blacked out grill and exhaust tips. (IS250 AWD)
I'm not asking for negative comments.. I just thought I'd share Anwyays, I got some new custom painted satin black 20's because I went the cheap route with XXR wheels in the past and they cracked (thanks to Utah roads). I also decided to black out the chrome around my grill and exhaust tips. Anyways... Here's pics of my old wheels and new wheels...
2007 IS250 AWD, H&R Lowering Springs, TSW Snetterton 20x8.5 +40, 235/35/20 tires.
Old XXR Wheels:
New TSW Wheels:

After paint.

I used plasti dip... I did some research of people who've used it and they said theirs are holding up after a year... So I tried it. So far, nothing has changed. They are theexhaust tips that go over my stock pipes that came with my rear GFX lip.

[quote=linus73;7406255]Personally, I've never been a fan of chrome, silver, or the polished lip... My emblems are black and the chrome around the grill is black, so the wheels match perfectly haha Some people aren't a fan of black wheels... And I'm fine with that Although, I do think they would've looked good the way they were (hyper silver with a mirror lip), but I wanted an all black mesh wheel and have received plenty of compliments on how it looked in the past and how it looks now

im not hating at all. i would have just left them alone thats all. i was going to get those same wheels in 20's for my IS, but the lip size killed it for me. 1.5on snetterton and 2.5 on my lexani. i had black rims before too, but with a polished lip, i changed because polish lip is hard as hell to upkeep. mirror lip just needs a wipedown. i have had a lot of negative things said about my lexani lss-10 wheels, but i think its the best set i have had thus far. and everywhere i go i turn heads, espically from all the other luxury car drivers, and im lovin every min of it. enjoy your new setup and do what you like, not what others think.
