Is it me or are they not the right offset? They stick in a bit more than 2IS stockies. But I like the look.

Would like to see these on a lowered car I think it looks good though. Not feeling lowering springs?

iRyan is right though. I think its steep but that's what Lexus calls "OEM" quality. I wish they were cheaper but I am happy to see them on your car patbateman.

15mm spacers will make it flush up front. 20mm in the rear. Spacers are just that thogh and people have their own thoughts on that...

it might be the angle. Even 2IS OEM wheels are slightly tucked in

Thanks for the pictures though.

Looks nice, thanks for the pics. I'm sure Lexus OEM wheels will withstand potholes better than the ebay replicas.

Oem spec needs to have oem look, if you put spacers on and make it stick out you don't have oem spec no more, you then don';t have oem-like wheels no more and you will have people thinking of spacers - some say spacers are for losers!
