I like the rims, but strangely I'm not sure about the rubber. I think I would prefer a bigger profile for some reason.....

or maybe for it to actually be scraping on the floor lol!

I like the rims a lot, like a few others have said bigger brake discs would compliment them a lot more, its nice to see a Is200 with 20's, I think they deserved 20's as standard!

In 98/99 when it was designed/released, that would have been unthinkable! New cars nowadays do come with much larger alloys than they used to. (Though it's still a bit silly!)

Confusedad: It was a tough call to make, but the Supercharged IS200 is being retired. Confusedad:

I'm about to get another Lexus, but don't tell my other one, as I think it's kinder she doesn't know. Actually, for the time being, don't tell my girlfriend either, as I told her I couldn't afford another holiday, and the first she'll know of the new Lexus is when I pull up in it!

Very nice rims there mate, but the rubber does look too small somehow! As well as the obvious, and already discussed, it makes the brakes look a little like babies!

Ahh Stoney i just realised ur from exeter, i was there a couple days ago! And if I had to choose between a car and a holiday, car is coming first with no second thoughts mate, but thats me I guess. Think Jay getting some bigger tyres for them.
Ive seen big brake conversions online but they are nearly £2000 if you want the 15inch set!
