I totally agree with you there MIke...when CV3s are "rolling" they look very nice...not bland at all.

And I think you said it best, "it's classic". So decision is classic vs. modern wheel.

haha +1 on this.

Also CV3's are a classic design with a few minor tweaks that make a huge difference. I personally think they are awesome.

How about this: Both wheels are awesome

Honestly you can't go wrong with either ... they both look stunning.

But like others... I am a 19" wheel kinda guy

The sizes differentiate the two. Cant really compare. One looks great because its larger than the other.
I'd go with the LC818 IMO.

LC818 takes the cake for me. How much are the price comparison? aren't they atleast a grand apart?

Cv3 hands down.. Linea corse = cheap knockoffs. But its your money, that's just my opinion.

In all fairness, the LC818 is an original design i believe. And Linea Corse is actually a bit more pricey than your typical knockoff. I put it in a higher category than "cheap knockoff" but everyone has their own opinion

Personally I like 19" more than 20" , too. But that's just me

I'd rather spend the price difference the 2 sizes on something else

LC818 looks way better than the CV3 IMO. 20s is just way too big on a IS...

The CV3 will be coming out in 19" eventually... however 20" fitment on the IS is not bad at all, especially if you don't plan on "slamming" the car. You can run semi aggressive offsets with proper tire sizes (no stretch) and you'll also get a 5 year warranty on the wheels.......... to be honest I haven't seen any other wheel company offer such a warranty and live up to it the way Vossen does!
