Somehow, the spokes remind me of tarantula legs. Personally, I don't like them. What is more, I don't thinkk they will enhance the look of a Lexus.

those wheels look like they belong on a SUV. Not on a passenger car...

Twankys: What style are you looking for? What is important to you? What is your budget? Most of the guys here are really knowledgable and can probably refer you to a quality wheel that will fit your taste and budget.

WARNING: My initial budget was 2500.00 until I found out there was no way I could get what I wanted for that price. If weight is an issue for you, you may not want chrome. If you just want something that catches attention when you pull up, anything shiny will do. Personally, I can't imagine not having chrome. Even my factories are chrome.

Yes chrome is a bit heavier, but it also helps you out by giving people more time to jealously stare at you as you TRY to speed away....I LOVE CHROME!!!

Wow... those wheels look so much like the wheels some guy has on his SC400. I see it around town, they are 20's too. Not the best looking SC i've ever seen
