Question Yes, No, Maybe?

Alright, I'm looking at a new set of rims for my lex. I'm trying to find something differently, yet classy all at the same time. This is what I found.




What do you think?

Those look a LOT like Moda R6's, or the stock 17's on a 2nd gen GS or 1st gen IS. There's a thread a few up from here on other Lexus model wheels on ES's, so check it out because I believe that someone's put some GS wheels on there.

Cool

They look nice! Easy to clean with only 5 spokes. Simple & should look nice on the car.

Your best bet would be to check in the forums for anyone selling there stock wheels from a GS or IS, you'll probably get a better deal than buying replicas.

Edit: That's Vic Nyce's ES300, those wheels look sharp on it. Original thread here.
