Default New lexus owner sc400

Picked up this car for a few bucks and just wondering what wheels look best.
I just replaced the stock wheels with some G35 18" 7spokes and they look decent. But i want to know if anyone has seen a sc in my color with black wheels with a red lip?? I know its hard to pull off that look especially on a luxury car...so just wondering if anyone has done it on a sc.

congrats on the ride. black is hard to pull off with that color. try looking into black with a polished lip or gunmetal would be nice

If you had the lip, painted the same color as the car, you could pull the black center off, that would look pretty good IMO.

IMO, dont do the TA style wheels. some nice polished wheels would do the trick.
