Default Kaotik Wheels. Anyone Familiar With The Brand?

I never thought picking a wheel for my IS would be this hard! LOL, seriously! Everytime I think I found my top 3 I come across something else that makes me rethink them!

Is anyone familiar with the brand Kaotik? How is the quality, warranty, build, etc. If anyone has some info / details on them I please post away!

This is the one that caught my eye... (19x8s all around)

19x8 won't fit? i thought it would, just look a bit funny.

but if you look at his original post, i think he's talking about his IS.

i believe those wheels by kaotik are copies by the way.

I would NEVER buy imitation wheels.. [/B]
not everyone has the same amount of $$ to just throw around! I could honestly care less if they look like another brand or others may refer to them as cheap imitations. if one has the $$ to spend $5k on just a set of wheels for a car w/o thinking twice more power to them. personally, I would never spend that type of money on such an item!

so back to the question on hand, regardless of it looking like another wheel or the price tag of them......does anyone know about the quality and build of Kaotik wheels?????

This very topic has been beaten to death here.


Then leave it be already! You are the one that jumped with the cheap imitation comments! I don't remember that being the topic! I asked about the wheel brand itself! NOT who / how felt about similar wheels and how much $$ they can toss!

Don't cheapen your car by buying crap.. save up and mod it correctly or don't mod it at all.. [/B]


Sorry Sir, I didn't realize you wrote the book and set the standard! I do apologize all mighty, please forgive!

Left at that.....

After poking around the net some more, yeah they are not good quality wheels.

I was on some other lexus forum(wonder who) I don't get why the IS guys always decide to go for the cheapest wheel.
