Default Wheel Opinions

Hey everyone, I'd like to say hi to everyone on the forums, seeing as this is my first post on club Lexus. I have been a long time lurker and I have learned much from the guys and gals on the boards. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone on here.

Now I would like you guys to help out with your opinions on these new wheels. These are the newest wheels offered by Rays, called Lexion of all things. Which of these 2 wheels would you prefer, keep in mind these are going on an IS300? The type 203 or type 103?

Type 203


Type 103


Thanks a lot people, I look forward to hearing your opinions.

-Mike

OK I'll go against the grain and say 103's although I like a lot of other wheels out there a lot more.

I’m open to other options. What would you suggest?

Personaly I like the HRE wheels.

It's all a matter of your personal tast though. You should get what you like. JUST DON'T GET SPINNERS!

Maybe one day I can afford some wheels.

I agree that HRE are top quality wheels. In fact a have a set silver 540rs right now. The quality and customer service associated with those wheels is amazing.

As for this post, I am trying to get opinions on wheels for a daily driving option.

Thank you very much for the suggestion on the HRE's, fantastic (expensive) wheels.

Can't go wrong with either...but I'll vote 103 since they look very similar to my Work Euroline LS. BTW, the 203 looks similar to Work Euroline IS
