Picking out wheels, any suggestions?
Wanting to go with 19" with a decent lip on the back, smaller lip on the front.
Would like to go with either silver or a brushed aluminum finish with the lip being Chrome or polished.
Sticking to 19" mainly so I have more options in terms of coilovers/slamming the car.
I found these two to be interesting:
iSS Forged Spyder: http://www.issforged.com/spyder/
iSS Forged Complex 5: http://www.issforged.com/complex-5/
My overall goal for the car is a luxury/clean/vip look... just without the wide spoked vip style wheels.

Just checked the prices on the iSS Forged wheels, and MSRP starts at $3.5k so I will NOT be buying them Lol. I still like the designs, and want to use that as a base line for the style I am going for.

Picking out wheels, any suggestions?
o I thought I'd just quickly add to the current slough of threads regarding wheel choice.
Firstly here is a picture of my car. It's an '09 BMW 135i. This picture was right after I finished installing my coilovers, so the front is almost lined up with the top of my wheels now The rears will be coming down more too when I have the time.
I have been pondering over wheels for the past few months now, so I figured I'd ask you guys for some input. There's two different routes that I could go. I could pick up an older set of three-piece wheels and get them rebarreled and remade for my offsets and sizes, or I could order new wheels.
As far as the refinishing part goes, I was looking at maybe Gotti G1001's or Work Equips. (I'm a noob when it comes to refinishing wheels, so if these aren't even possible I apologize).
And for new wheels I was looking at the 3SDM 0.05's or maybe Rotiform NUE's (The cheap ones, I wish I could afford to get a custom set made).
I'm honestly open to any suggestions, just have to be 5x120, 18 x >8.5, and have a high offset.
Cheers!

Here is a place you can look at all the wheels on a 2IS. I have forged wheels and yes they're a lot of money! There are a variety of wheels choices and brands in these threads. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...ead-index.html
