Default MAS Italy Sagitta on IS300

I have the Vizage bodykit and am now looking to make the transition from 17's to 19's. I've been looking at wheels for about 3 months now and my limiting factor is, of coarse, money. Anyhow, I found the MAS Sagitta today and saw that it comes in a 19x8, so I took the JP demo image of the Vizage kit and threw the wheels on just to see what they would look like.

What do you think? I kind of like the wheel, dunno if I like them enough to buy them but - maybe...? Hrmph. Chrome Sagitta 19x8's with a 1.5 inch drop and the Vizage body kit - I do like the sound of that... Anyone have any experience with MAS wheels?

Aren't HRE's made to order basically? They are hella expensive from what I've found. I'd be better off getting the Zauber Gettin 19x8 from Japan, price wise.

I couldn't agree more. Buy/Drive the car, mod it correctly or not at all.
You guys are hilarious.

If that's the case, maybe you shouldn't be fixing up a Luxury car. Seriously, be more concerned with getting a good education and GETTING ON YOUR OWN TWO FEET. THEN worry about fixing up a luxury car. Until then, just be grateful that you have a REALLY nice ride (even in stock form) for a 18 year old...

When you make $10/hour, figuring out what wheels to get on your car should be the last thing you're worried about...

We're really getting away from the topic of question: Do you like the MAS Italy Sagitta's on the MSM IS30 as shown. And, has anyone dealt with MAS Italy wheels; Are they good, bad, cheaply made, etc..??
