Default Best looking OEM wheel replacements for SC300

Im about to purchase a 1995 SC300 (soon hopefully!!) and I have to say I'm not a big fan of the factory 15" wheels (silver). Im looking around for a cheap(er) OEM upgrade rather than going out and buying a set of Volks (or equivalent). I definitely want a pearl white 300, which OEM wheels look the best on them? Chrome SC400, IS300, GS400?? Does anyone have any pics? Thanks!!

98 SC400 wheels look really nice; saw them on a black 92 the other day and it looks pretty clean; they are 17s

You can never go wrong with the Supra staggered 17s on a SC, factory fresh look

I think the best OEM wheels for the SC are the 17" GS400 5 spoke wheels I have on mine.

https://www.clublexus.com/gallery/sh...p?ppuser=12935

There's also one photo there of the original 95/96 SC400 wheel. That one's called leftfront.

The 98 SC 5 spoke wheels are 6.5x16 (not 17 as stated above).

The 96 SC 7 spoke wheels are 7x16.

The GS400 5 spoke wheels are 8x17.
