It took alot of work to get these wheels on to my 2002 SC430...Don't Ask!

I found the wheels and tires (the fronts were shot from too much camber wear) for $700 on the G35 forum classifieds:

They came without centercaps so I ordered a set of 4 along with stick on Lexus logos in Black pearl from:

http://wesden.com/aboutUS.htm

I sent out the centercaps without the logos to be powder coated in satin black to match the powder coated Rays wheels.

I have Brand New 245/35/19 Nexen N7000's on the front 19x8" wheels and 245/40/19 Potenza RE050's (that came with the wheels) on the rear 19x8.5" wheels.

Once the rears wear out I will be putting 265/35/19's on the rear.

I also got Gorilla Lug Nuts in Black from Amazon:

and a set of Hub Centric Rings - O.D. 66.06 - I.D. 60.06 from:

I think these wheels with the stock offsets look sweet on the sc430!

Would you mind sharing the details of what specifically you ordered from Wesden and how much it cost, as well as where you sent the caps for powdercoating? I have the same wheels that I use w/my snows and really like your centercaps. Thanks.

Just tell Wesden you want the centercaps for the G35 Rays 19" Forged wheels and they will take care of you. The cost with the black pearl lexus logos and shipping was around $125.

I got them powdercoated here:

American PVD Coatings
9451 Washburn Road
Downey, CA 90242
Los Angeles County
Phone: (562) 861-6348

There is a $50 minimum for powder coating.

The finished product had some bumps and ridges that are not that noticeable once the caps on are on the wheels.

Looks good, I'm thinking of putting those rims on my IS350.

Are they matte black or is that just the picture? How's the handling with the two different kinds of tires on the front and back?

Doesnt matter where the wheels started, they look great! The offset is perfect for flush look on a lexus.

Also, these only weigh about 19lbs each which is about 8lbs lighter than my stock 18'' IS350 wheels.

They are powdercoated satin black, not quite matte and not too shiny either.

They are staggered rims, and they handle just fine

This the first time I've seen them on an SC430. They don't look bad.
