Just bought an IS350 WOOOOOOOW my first love.

when i bought it was on the lot so it didnt have the ISP wheels and the spoiler.

My dealer sold me the ISP wheels and i get them on this weekend. but now... after having the standards and asking other people (non car enthusiasts) they say they like the standard better and that i should just not get the ISPs on. how bout you guy? do u guys think I paid 2450 dollars for something ugly?
please give honest input about YOUR preferences.

second... im plannign to ask my dealer to order a spoiler for me and then get it installed on saturday when i return back to the dealership to get the wheels on. anyone know if it will get there on time and how much it will cost to have my delaer order them and then install them. if you've done this tell me how long it took for the spoiler to get in and how much u paid for the spoiler and installment

THANKS CL


Btw Tungsten Pearl, Black leather, NAV, ML, Sport, blah blah blah

 

I also got the ISP wheels and think they look even better than what you can see in the pictures and they will make your car look a bit different than most ISs out there. They also have a graphite or gunmetal finish that makes them look really AWESOME!!!

Here's a pic of my car with the ISPs...

 

to be honest alex when i saw ur car with isp last week is what made me want to get them. lol i give you kudos.

btw did u car have the spoiler or did u have it installed by the dealer?

 

The ISP's are really nice on the car, but for a little more than you paid for those, you can get a lot nicer set of wheels.... $.02

 

In my case, the ISP wheels, rear spoiler and ground effects kit were installed free!!! at the dealership due to an error committed by the person who placed the special order. The car was supposed to come with all those things installed but didn't, so in a way I benefitted from their mistake!!!

 

They look nice... but good luck cleaning your loads of brake dust off those multispokes x.x

 

please give honest input about YOUR preferences

I honestly do not like the look of the ISP's. While the down side of the stnd 18's is that so may have them, they do look great and I saved $2g's.

 

I think you need to see them in person. At first I didn't like either the ISPs or the G-spyder wheels, but after seeing the G-Spyders in person, I ordered them for my IS when it came.

No kidding. That is sure the truth. I have had my new IS for 3 days now and the rims are covered in brake dust after one day. It makes me want to get 5 star wheels so they are easier to clean.

 

I really wanted the ISPs in the beginning. They look aggressive, but I wanted a bit more bling. They do look sporty, but too simple with 15 straight spokes. And they are pricey at $2450; you can get them online for about $1000.

I stuck with the standard 18's and got them chromed (about $650 online). They look sooo much better (especially on a light colored car) than the regular alloy finish. The standard 18's look as if they have a bit more movement than the ISPs; its curves give it a little more character, and a lot more shine with the chrome.



Here is a Matador Red with chromes...

I think they look better than stock 5 spoke wheels.

With that said, I'm getting a set of Volk Progressive Spoke wheels in 18"s and I'll be paying about the same amount. They're lighter and stronger. For that kind of money, you can pretty much get your pick of some top wheels.

 

IMO, the ISPs look a lot better. The only reason I would not buy them is because for that same price, you can buy a much better set of aftermarket wheels. That's the only thing that would keep me away from the ISP's.

 

sorry, what does "IMO" mean?

 

It means "In My Opinion"
