Those look like OEM LS430 18" wheels painted graphite, then added some faux bolts around the edge. Interesting!

The graphite looks pretty cool. What color is your car? This will be interesting to see.

I saw those on Ebay. I was thinking about getting the OEM looking ones. Very nicely priced if you want an OEM look.

STOP ! STOP !!!!!

Pearl white will not go with those wheels, unless they were chrome, but obviously there not.

At least put a red stripe, or color matched stripe around the outer lip to give it some contrast.

have to agree, I think you will regret those nice wheels on a white car.
