Default 17 inch limited wheels

hey everyone,

Get some IS wheels or some other aftermarket wheels if you are willing to pay close to that price. Those factory wheels are nice but not as nice as what you can get for that type of money.

keep in mind that includes tires, is it still not worth it?

I paid about $900 for a set of IS wheels with a freshly polished lip (since many of these have flaking problems) & a brand new set of 275/70/16 Bridgestone Revos. IMO these look much better than the Limited wheels. Everyone has their own tastes, but that's just my opinion.

Good luck!

i like the limited wheels better, i dont know why. my dream would be to paint them black for a boy racer look and that would be color-keyed to my paint, and then throw in a daystar 1 inch spacer in the front with some appropriatly sized tires, and get a clean look, i think it would look very nice and would be proportionate
