His options are VERY limited peoples! He already stated he doesn't want to have a lip (and I understand because my wife drives an AWD). There's not too many full faced rims out there, let alone expensive ones.

I saw Vossen recommendatios. Vossen doesn't make 1 wheel that fits his descritpion. Did you not see in his signature he drives an AWD? Or didn't you see that he DOESN'T want a lip?

OP, I would say go with Five Axis S5:F wheels.

Yea I might just stay stock for a while. I want to steer away from the racing look, just not a big fan. Thanks for all the comments guys. I love those vossens if they would just make them in 19s. And my pockets were fairly deep. O welllll............

if you are concerned about the quality of a tenzo wheel, ask a guy who runs axis, they are both made by Lenso (same company that makes Axis) Tenzo rep has been shotty at best over the years, i have run volks, rays, advans and works...... i needed a cheap rim for a DD accord i own and i bought a set of the exact rims you are looking at (19x8.5 matte charcoal) , i was very skeptical at first but they are actually pretty decent rims, the quality is comparable to axis, and the Finnish is decent. Again this is on a DD accord, if you are on a budget these are a decent option. you cannot beat the quality of any true JDM wheel, and the OEM lexus wheels are probably better quality then a tenzo, but unless you are on tuskuba or track the car they are decent for around town. Trust me i went ballistic when my wife curbed my Rays A/x on my IS, these i could care less about.
