geoffreymg Posted April 13, 2006 Posted April 13, 2006 It appears to be a great deal. The wheels look like they are in great shape and the tire tread looks hardly used. I'm trying to find the catch b/c <$1,000 seems too good to be true. Any ideas? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-4-LEXUS-...054394560QQrdZ1
jzz30 Posted April 13, 2006 Posted April 13, 2006 i dunno but i guess ur not looking for oem wheels huh? maybe some IS350 wheels would be good. they are 18inch and run about $1000 im guessing cuz thats what most oem wheels with tires run with usally less than a thousand miles
Scott Gordon Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 you never know with ebay i bough 4 2006 gs stock wheels for $450 but one was a bit bent (not disclosed) dealer sells them for 499 each they look great on sc300 do homework before buying both ebay and wheel information need studing.
2JZ_SC Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 The "catch" is that thay are NOT LEXUS wheels. Thay are aftermarket. We put wheels like those (with the same "L" logo) on all the time.
SKperformance Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 Those look like Neeper Hazz rims with a logo in the center. The tires are from a SC430 so they are fun flats.
wilhunt Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 I have a 1997 SC400 and was running stock wheels with new Toyo tires. It ran real good. I had the opportunity to buy a set of new 2006 IS 18' wheels and tires for a very low price and they only had about 45 miles on them. They look really good but they do not handle as well as my stock set up. They seem to be noisier and are prone to wander in the hiway grooves. Also the ride is much firmer. The car feels more like sports car now but I really think it was bettter all around with the stock Toyo's. Before you spring for the big bucks for new wheels and tires be prepared for a much firmer and different ride.
