I've also mirrored the car so it's at the same format as the blue car

Those are Yokohama Model 7 rims.
Im not sure what the Lexus Ltuned rims are. Im guessing if they aren't model7's they might be the Versus 7 spoke Rays wheel.
Which also comes in 6 spoke.

Yup they sure do copy a lot.
The Konig you guys are talking about are copies of Advan model 7.

Go to www.advan.com to see the original design.
Just FYI.
