Why do you need other wheels while you wait. Waste of money. Of course, I'm talking to big money Lexus people here...

I'm getting the right wheels right from the get go. Rent and roll until I'm happy...

You guys are all full of crap, you don't have to spend 4k for wheels for them to be worth a look. There are some companies that make good wheels for a good price. I have had some ADR sterling 20" staggered wheels for like 6 years and there great. They can even take a curb, on the other hand my SEVAS suck *** the chrome started peeling after a year.

They went out of business though so there is a reason. If you go with a company that has been around for along enough there is a reason they aren't a fly by night company. For you guys that say buy yourself some real wheel's, most people aren't made of money and you aren't either. That's why your driving a sc300/400 that they stopped making 10 years ago.

A lot of ours are 15 years or older, we couldn't afford a new Lexus. Some of you guys say stupid crap like its a Lexus you guys have money like these are new Lexus with high dollar players or something.

I agree.... i would never judge anyone and so i don't believe anyone else needs to be judged either... especially on buying rims.... who cares... if u can afford $$$$ wheels +1 to u.. but don't knock someone who is working around his budget.... so be sensitive before knocking ppl... maybe they cannot afford em... like most of us can't afford a murcielago... but we play with the cards we are dealt with...

18x10 +25 you will need a good roll on the fenders.. i would say get 19's if the roads there are good.. i had 19's here in missouri and went down to 18's cause i wanted more rubber around my wheels.. cause i kept hitting huge pot holes!.. so to protect my wheels i went smaller with an 18 inch wheel and more rubber..
