Well to sum it up, the wheels I found were replica's. I didn't end up buying it. I just wanted it as an extra set.

The replica's are NOT staggered (well at least this guy's set wasn't) and they're damn close to the real ones. The only difference is that it didn't say FORGED on the rim. Aside from that, their would be no way to tell that they're fake once they're on the car.

F-Sport wheels can come in non-staggered configuration for AWD IS250/350. Not sure about not having forged on the side though...

If you end up buying them, can you please weigh each wheel. I'm curious about the weight. I believe the real one is around ~21 pounds or so which is 8 pounds lighter than the OEM wheel.

the square setup is only for 18x8, authentic 19" comes staggered 19x8/9. Although dealers don't sell 19" squared, but it is possible to "add to cart" 4x same sized 19" wheels on Sewell. Not sure if they will actually ship it though.

i just looked up their website, and it says their wheels are 100% manufactured in America. The fsport forged wheels are made in Taiwan, so this information has to be incorrect unless I am missing something.
