Default Carlsson Design? Good?

Found these for sale local for $950.



Found them listed for $765 each online. They look like Carlsson Design 2/6 Performance Wheels (http://www.racerwheel.com/wcls-491.html)

Good deal? Good quality rim? Thanks

they are.... a fellow So. Cal. member has them on his 1st Gen. GS. Make sure the bolt pattern is correct if you want to fit them into your Lexus (I assume you have a Lexus).

Default Yea

Hi, Yeah Excellent price... And Carlsson is a pioneer of Benz tuning, Body-kits and wheels... You should find out if they're staggered? ..Those would be a REAL GOOD deal... And I know someone with a 1st gen GS has the 1/6's on his car... You should check out that forum and ask his opinion as well....

Well I called the guy and it looks like they will not fit the GS because he bought them for his IS and they dont fit

Here is some more info on them:

All around 19 x 8 (no staggared )
Front - 225 tires
Rear - 245 tires

Default damn...

Too bad...

I Know you can have them "re-drilled" ..to fit your car... BUT ..many would advise against it..? (although every1 I've seen with re-drilled wheels has yet to have any issues) .. Also, I personally like the stagered look.....Oh well ......You should check out Ebay... you can find some nice (Non-brand name) rims 18-20 for VERY GOOD prices.... Good luck....
