hmm well in that case... when it comes to stock wheels... BMW did it much much much better

I'm gonna go ahead and disagree with phillip on this one, It's just a case of BMW making some really nice factory wheels, as long as you don't have the bmw centercaps on, it'll be all good.

otherwise, by that same principle, you could say that anyone who puts any aftermarket wheel on is betraying the toyota brand.

anyways, i dont care much for anything bigger in diameter than 18, but these are some nice wheels, no doubt.

BMW does have one of the best looking factory wheels out there.

I personally like the rims, they have a quality sport/luxury style that fits the SC- as long as you do the centercaps like you mentioned. However, I personally dislike the red lugnuts and especially the two tone paint. It would look sooo clean and slick in all black, or even all red for that matter. That two tone makes it look sorta cheap like a Canadian tuxedo- even if the finish and quality of paint is nice.

The SC has the potential to look high class, sleek, fast and luxurious...
Two-tone is... is... just not the right direction in my opinion.

Last year I did the luxury n VIP thing with dished 20s on air ride.... Now going a different aggressive route

Ya I've been bugged about the 2 tone for awhile but I'm not worried... All people ever say is to make a solid color which is what everyone else. My Soarer, my color, I love my car. Not looking to conform to what an "SC/Soarer" should look like....

Ill be tackling my 1jz next winter and concentrate more on the power side since I'm done makin the exterior pretty since I'll pretty much damage most of it with how low I'll be going

Should be fun

I don't really think these are that great, I think you could do much better than that though.
