He said he wasn't putting those wheels on the car...why does everyone keep telling him to pick something else?

Might also consider some of the later model factory Lexus wheels with high disk fitments. The 3-LS 18's look good.

I know he said he was not going to put THOSE rims on his car, but I sincerely hope it ain't something similar.

That's good that you found some wheels!! Hopefully you got the right offset and the right disk.

if you even think about putting those rims on your ride you should also have someone stomp your face while your mouth is open biting the concrete side walk like in american history x movie...hahahaha
