Default What wheels are these?

I'm still deciding on wheels for my white SC300, and I thought these looked pretty good. Anybody know what they are called? i originally wanted Kranze Borphes wheels, but I don't think I'll ever be able to find a set..

Thanks mr2tosc4! Very clean SC! Would you recommend 18's or bigger. Also, What are your wheel specs?

That SC is beautiful. I love the wheels and stance, though the mufflers are a little on the Popeye's forearms side. I'm impressed, not usually my cup of tea. Well done my man!

Thanks, I would stick with 18's only if you are not putting a kit on or just doing
the 97 conversion. Otherwise, if you plan to slap on a low fitting kit, I would do 19's. Specs are (including spacers) Front 18x8 +11, Rear 18x9 +13

There's a set of these for sale in the Wheel & Tire classifieds a week or two back, but black with a polished lip. Cant remember what the title was but they were located in Vancouver..

Yea I was thinking 18's, I have a pearl white 97' and I don't plan on lowering it or adding a kit, so perfect! I Definitely want to get the Amistad's over the knockoff's! I know there discontinued, but is there anywhere in particular I might be able to find some in that same fitment and color? I've tried googling them, but not much luck.

Well I would call these guys up if you really want to start somewhere:

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/clu...p-styling.html

They're the ones that brought these wheels to this forum. See if they know anyone who still carries them.
