I'm staying with OEM wheels. I think they are pretty good quality and last forever. The OEM F Sport or LFA one looks pretty good to me.

For safety reason, don't spend money on cheap wheels, save up something at least at Enkei level or higher or stick with OEM and spend the money on something else.

haha, it is funny that you call them lobster claws. You do pretty good man, cruising in Lexus at highschool age. I did not get mine till I have a full time job several years after highschool. This baby Lex is high maintenance compared to my first car Honda Accord lol. Have fun with the IS.

+1 I wish I had enough money to afford even a car in highschool

Keep saving for what you want to get and not compromise on something you end up not liking later on
