Default Thinking about getting these LFA wheels

http://www.ebay.com/itm/19-BLACK-LFA...-/281335499502

Anybody tried these? Curious how they would look. I have a silver car so I think the black is good. I wanted to go to a bigger wheel on my 2010 and the price is right on these.

I'm not a wheel guru like some guys here, but from what I'm gathering, those aren't LFA wheels and just replicas. I'd question the quality, weight, etc, but aga, I'm not totally sure.
But do a search and you should find a thread where a member here bought actual LFA wheels and they looked CRAZY good on his IS-F!

Yeah....don't do it.

Your IS-F has BBS forged wheels on it that are tested/quality and reliable and LIGHT.

You would be putting some goofy Chinese wheels on your car, that would put yourself and your passengers at risk.

Obviously these are not real LFA wheels. LFAs have 20-inchers.

I've had those wheels on another Lexus I had. Loved the look but they do crack. OEM BBS>LFA REPS.
