I guess it doesnt matter to those who dont know any IS owners but at major car shows, too many second gen IS owners has these 5 spoke variation wheels and makes me SMH.
That was true however Calitri, Obby, Devin/HyperMKIV and N54Mpower all parted ways with their wheels or cars and haven't been seen since. Your argument should be more geared toward Vossen CV3s or TE37s (I know it's a six spoked wheel but I can't wait to hear your grudge about them), I see more of those than Meisters/SP1s.
If seeing 5 spoke wheels on an ISF gets you upset, you need to take things less seriously haha.
So to break it down, had I gone with 4 spokes you would have been fine, 6 spokes you would have been fine with that but because it's 5 spokes all hell breaks loose. lol Pat

BTW the 5th and 6th picture is the same car

Yeah a lot of ISF owners love Vossen for some reason.. not sure why. They do have great marketing lol.

Yeah TE37's have been played out on every car in the world.. its rightfully so because its an awesome wheel, looks wise and for their strength/lightness. Its a Volk staple and makes any car look good. Its almost a given it will be popular on any vehicle platform.

I'm not upset just disappointed lol, I just expected differently since you went from a 5 spoke wheel to another 5 spoke wheel. In Socal I have a couple second gen IS/ISF owners (outside of the forum) and they both run identical wheels (SP1), maybe thats why I call it how I see it.

The 5th persons car is my friend, I don't know about the 6th.. saw it in the spotted thread so wasn't exactly sure haha

I agree with you on the TE37s.
The thing you don't know is that I have another set of wheels on order that aren't 5 spokes

This is a picture heavy post





I finally caved and got the ISX50 2011+ taillights, I haven't decided if I like them yet. All I can say is it's different..
One thing though, I wondered why nobody mixed and matched them with the ISF lights. It's because the ISX50 2011+ are a bit more pronounced. I guess if you don't mind it you can mix and match but it bugs me.
In other news I have a set of Advans on the way and I have plans to order a set of Novel headers in the next month or so and then I am calling it quits for a while, may be buy a new car lol.



ISX50 2011+ Inner w/ ISF stock outer



ISX50 2011+ outer w/ ISF stock inner



This is with the ISX50 2011+ all around


I found this pretty cool Kenmeri C110 Skyline in SF and had to check it out.
