Default How about these wheels?

I'm forever searching for the perfect wheel for my IS-F. I always buy Iforged, HRE's, Pro-Drives, etc.... but darn it, these look pretty nice.

Those look clean but they look to me to be a lot like the stock IS-F wheel

That's fine with me. I'm just wondering about the quality of this wheel.

AMEs are very good quality Japanese wheels. Too bad they don't come in 20s. You have to check the offsets though.. they don't seem to fit the IS-F very well and I don't know if they do custom builds.

If they aren't forged, I think they are a step backwards from the stock forged BBS Wheels. They do look very nice though...

If anyone gets these I'd love to see how it looks on the IS-F. I was contemplating getting these when I had my IS350.

Not to hate on your previous wheels, but don't you think you could've gone more aggressive?
