Default used to be my pick...

.. until I finally decided on something else.
Never really found the exact brand, but I know several others with similar design:
- Maya DTS, as Lonely Tootbrush has mentioned
- Work Euroline IS (www.work-wheels.co.jp)
- A/X (Arthur Exchange) Style CS (www.rayswheels.co.jp)
- Zauber Crazer (18" max, nothing larger)
- Axis Milano
- or even Carlsson 2/5
So just choose one.
Good luck.

Do u by chance have a picture of your HRE 546? I am deciding between the 546 and the L-sportline model 1. I've only seen one real pic of the 546 on a lex. Thanks.

Default "Wheels 101" not offered in fall semester

No, not right now Eric... "Wheels 101" is not offered in fall semester here in Wisconsin... j/k
Naah, the same picture just happened to inspire me to mod my car, and before I settled with my current choice, that style (5 spoke Carlsson) WAS my choice... and at first, before knowing any JDM wheels, I thought that was a redrilled Carlsson... there's a guy in school driving a new C-class with similar wheels, and that looks schweeeetttt.....

Default Carlsson

Carlsson makes some to fit Lexus. We only ever had the 1/6 but if you want to bring em from Germany and buy a boat load I'm guessing the 2/5 or 2/6 would be available. Good luck, we quit carrying them but they are nice wheels no doubt about it.
