Default For (Manaray) What do you think of ACE Wheels?

I am new to CL, and I just wanted to get some opinions on the ACE wheels for the GS models. I may possibly try and get a sponsorship from them. I already have a sponsorship from ALBA wheels, but just needed some insight. It seems like I can gain alot from all of the other CL members. Thanks in advance. Please be gentle, like I said I'm new to CL.

Alba - Ugly. Serious GHETTO fabulous..."Battle 405"...Jesus, could they have made an uglier wheel?

Ace - Cheap Knock-Offs...what a POS company...

Ok, that was me being nice...

Seriously, both brands are something I'd NEVER put on a Lexus (even a salvage titled ES250 with 352,000 miles on it...unless they decided to COMPLETELY changing their business model to make HIGH QUALITY & ORIGINAL DESIGN wheels...didn't think so... )

Stick with the good stuff...HRE, Fikse, Work, Rays/Volk, Weds, SSR, etc...

I was thinking of the SSR GT1... But you're right...at least they're well made! I just wouldn't buy the Competition (or the Advan RG)...at least not on a Lexus...more of a integra type of wheel

I've thought about RGs on my car because I've seen them on an Aristo and it looks very tight however I guess it's too racy for the GS (unless I get a sporty kit and etc.)

Thumbs up Thanks

Thanks Manaray for your reply. I guess I'll look up the other wheels and decide from there.
