ExclusivIS: Quite simply I refuse to buy cheap wheels from fly-by-night companies that keep rebranding to avoid customer's from recognizing it's the same brand. Quality companies WANT THEIR NAME TO BE REMEMBERED, NOT FORGOTEN such as BBS, Volk, etc.

What if you bend a wheel 1 year down the road, where are you going to get spare or pretty much you going to throw away 3 rims as no one buys incomplete wheel sets?

I spoke to the VOSSEN rep at SEMA and he specifically told me that wheel pictured does NOT fit IS-F's due to rear brake clearance issues. I think the picture shown above is on a regular ISx50.

ADVAN makes some quality rims and I saw a black IS-F sporting those wheels at SEMA but they certainly don't look that great on the IS-F (personal opinion).

Why is it that BMW owners get all the fun, this wheel would look perfect on the IS-F IMO but of course they don't make a 5x114.3 lug pattern for our cars....this is the BBS CH-R wheel btw:
