I can't believe how good these wheels look on the IS-F. I WISH they looked that good on the RC-F. My car came with these and I can't get them off of there fast enough. I had kept and stored my IS-F wheels and put them back on the car when I traded it. I may market these wheels (RC-F) to this community rather than store them when I can get new wheels on the RC F.

I find it to be the best of the three..
When you saw them in person on the test mule.. Did you like them then??

I think they would look good to most people, but they almost look like a cheaper version of the 08-09 blade wheels on the IS-F to me and I'm sure a few other F owners.

^^^^ Not me!!!! I just bought a set of the standard wheels w/o tires. And I just ordered a set of 295/30/19 & 255/35/19 Bridgestone S04 Pole Positions for them. I liked the S04s so much on my stock wheels that I'm stickin' with them.

My "ghetto" wheels will be here tomorrow, and before I install the tires, I will weigh them and post results here and in the RCF section.
Of the three RCF wheel choices, I'm sure I made the best choice for me and my F. They will look perfect on an MM car. I prefer a wheel with distinct spokes and the recessed center is a nice touch. The other two choices are far to busy for me and look like they will be monsters to clean. The "ghetto" wheels look good standing still and in motion. A very simple design IMHO. The more I see of them, the more I like them.
On another note, It looks like Lexus has dropped the trademark blue from the "F" marque. No more blue stitching and the blue hallo outline is gone from the F logo. I don't know why, but that blue was an important design touch to me
Here's a video of an RCF with the standard wheels:
