Default Looking for a good place to buy Oem Crhome rims?

I am looking to get either the old style GS430 17inch rims in chrome or the new style! Please let me know of a good place to get a good deal and quality is a most. Thanks

They are frequently on Ebay. Be aware that there are genuine OE as well as copies, FWIW.

I just bought the new style Chrome 17's off Ebay from a guy that took them off his 430. They were the first set that I had seen. I have been watching Ebay for a set for about 3 months. I ended up paying $910.00 for the wheels, no tires, which I thought was real cheap, I e-mailed the guy with a offer to end his auction early for $1200 + shipping and he turned me down, saved me $290 to wait until the end. The old style OEM wheels are on there all the time, just make sure they are OEM not replicas as stated above. I got the tires today (Pilot Sport's) and the wheels will be here tomorrow, I hope.

if you're looking for just oem exactly, then ebay is probably the way to go. the other thing is you can check out some moda r-6's on tirerack. they look VERY similar, and you could even get a bigger size for the same amount of money. i paid 1100 for some 19"s.

as far as chrome, if you can't find them chrome and want them chromed, let me know and i can pm you the info on the place i shipped to get mine chromed. great work.
