They look very similar to the frs wheels (still can't believe they selected them?!). Toyota really is horrible with their wheel designs as of late. The whole "samuarai" design bs is really not attractive in the us market. Just a better excuse to get some aggressive new wheels I guess!

I've been saying or rather yelling that these wheels are ugly! It's like Toyota/Lexus is going out of their way to put ugly wheels on their cars of late. Like they think ugly wheels are a fashion statement.

A car of this style & refinement would benefit from a nice sporty yet elegant wheel design from say, BBS. Someone who knows a lil something about designing/styling wheels.

I absolutely hate the two tone blade wheels. They look like minivan hubcaps from the '90s. The ones referenced by the OP aren't much better, and don't look particularly aggressive. I do like the third rims most of all, but they're still "ok". I feel like Lexus has done a nice job with wheels lately - CT, IS, LS, NX - so I can't figure out why the RC F got shafted so badly.

Wow they should just recycle that design

iirc those F wheels were a bit on the heavier side?

keep in mind that the RCF wheels are wider than the ISF, unless youre 2012+. RCF is coming with 245/275 stock size
