they do look nice - simple and elegant.

but - you will need to have painted calipers for those wheels, not just because they look nice, but because the IS calipers are really prone to corrosion, and you will really be able to see how bad they look through those wheels.

Don't forget the Lexus Stickers to go with it!

very nice mate... and I agree with Matt, get those calipers painted....

[Bazza-old]

i would watch the spokes that they are not proud of the rims

scuffed rims look bad but scuffed spokes look terrible :(

speaking through experience (never let the wifey choose her own rims)

Thanks guys for the input, you have confirmed some of my thoughts, i wanted to go for the minimalistic approach.

For sure i will need to paint the calipers, what colour do you think, i was either gona go for blue with red stickers to match the car or a red with black stickers.

For your info the wheels are called Matrix Shadows.

Defo go red with black on a blue car (IMO)...!! Where abouts in Middlesex are you mate...I live around the Richmond area.

I agree with Matt, with those type of wheels you do need to have the Capliers painted, it will look real cool..... :D :D
