Default I'm looking for wheels like this (need your help)

http://www.streetdreams.org/wheels/rims/BBS/FI/Titanium

http://www.adv1wheels.com/adv1wheels...on/ADV5_01.php

For the BBS they are 2100 $ each and bolt pattern doesn't fit our Lexus.

For the ADV1 they are 2600 $ each and I don't want to spend 10 000 $ on a wheels set.

I'm looking for 19" that can fit my IS 350.


I want to pay up to 600 $ each wheels and I want a good quality wheel with a similar look, thanks for your help.

Those ADV1's look like LFA replica wheels... ~ $750-ish a set on eBay... Not sure what the quality is tho...

Yeah I've saw them, exactly my type of wheels but for the quality I'm really not sure about the replica. They are probably heavy and weak and not sure about the painting also cause for the price I would be really impressed if the quality is good. And don't want to put aftermarket wheels that are not as good as the oem wheels, don't really want to sacrifice the quality for the looking.

The BC Forged are more expensive than I tought... I've wrote an e-mail to know the price and they are 3200 $ + 450 $ shipping for the set. So 912 $ each wheel. Kinda expensive

I know that for sure but the Vossen wheels that for me, as far as I know, are a better brand than BC for the 19" they are 200 to 300 $ cheaper depending which model.
Like I said in my first post I would spend up to 600 $ each wheels, correct me if I'm wrong but I think it's possible to find a good quality wheels for 2400 $/set
