They look pretty sick. I like the sizes they come in.



F:19x8.5"

R:19x9.5"

Offset

F/R: 40mm

Close to stock offset too.

In 18" they are 18x8 all around with 40 offset.

Interesting. It's like a stock sporty look. That's what I like. I just saw the LFA in person and the rims look sweet.

Just searched "lfa wheel" on ebay. I don't think I would want to do 19s either. I'd be worried about ride quality.

If anyone gets these please post pics up. I'm really curious!

Hmm interesting, id rock them on my SC, made out of Alloy it says so it should hold up like OEM, but with all things from ebay id still be cautious and do some research.

That "Hyper Black" looks sweet!

I've seen them on a few other Lexus models, they look good! Haven't seen them on an SC, but I'm sure they'd look great, might need a spacer with that high of an offset though, depending on what look you're looking for
19's on a 2IS

And another... (original thread)




I know these are 18's on the 3GS

Hi I'm new to CL and had some questions on the LFA wheels. I read all the LFA wheel posts but I'm still confused as I'm a newbie.

I'm planning on getting the LFA wheels in hyper black: 19x8.5 (F) & 19x9.5 (R). Offset: 38mm (F) & 45mm (R) Can someone tell me what the best tire size I should get for F and R? I don't plan on lowering my car as it's my daily driver and I don't want to sacrifice gas milage and ride comfort and don't want any rubbing. Is the above offset good for my car?

Any feedback is greatly appreciated! I know there's a lot of posts on this subject and hopefully I didn't **** anyone off by bringing it up again. Thanks!

Somethings odd about those wheels ...
They're similar in style, but somehow they just look different; like they're too small, as if the spokes don't have enough space between them ...
I dunno what it is; the actual LFA's just appear larger, like they have wider gaps in them.

that may be because the original lfa wheels are 20'

but ya, im also looking into these wheels for my 97 Supra TT in hyper black 19' 38+ front offset and 45+ back offset
cant find who the real manufacture makes these so im suck in a dead end

also, does anyone know how these would look on a 97 white supra

I noticed the same thing too. I guess it's because the original wheels are 20"s, but something looks different and I can't figure out what it is.
