^^ Those look different.


The original picture shows the wheels off a 2010 IS-F which are made by BBS, I wouldn't have a hard time believing the dealer wants 2k a piece.

I heard the GTR's 20" forged wheels by Rays are 2k a piece as well (dealer). I doubt anyone in their right mind would pay that though lol.

Very nice...they will come down. There are a couple of pairs of the first Gen IS-F wheels on eBay for under $5k with tires. They'll come down.

Might see if you can find the BBS model (CH, RS, etc) and see if you can buy direct from a BBS distributor??? Even though they "say" they are exclusive for the IS-F, they also said that in 1988 about my Rx-7 convertible rims, yet I saw some variances to it on the Lincoln, Acura, VW Corrado, Miata, etc etc etc. BBS is funny like that.

Thanks! I paid a bit over $2000 for 4 with tires shipped across the country and felt bad. Thanks for the better pics I shot mine off the showroom floor on a 2011 ISF. In person they look so much better.
