Yes. They come in Mercury Silver, which is pretty much like "hyper black"... but they'd be special-order.

Here thay are on an S2000. I can't find any pics of them on an IS but you can at least see the color.

Who said anything about class? You said expensive car.

A $30k car isnt "expensive" unless you're some hoodlum. A new Camry is about $24k. And Accord V6 is about $22k. A new GT Mustang is about $28k fully loaded. And my Cobra was right around $30k new if you want to get technical.

Nice of you to bring my car into it even though I was comparing the IS300 to an S600, if you really want to compare our cars, go right ahead.

you're the one tryin to say how its the cheapest lexus buddy.

30k ok so thats not expensive, but its not a fucking civic or integra to throw cheap wheels on it, thats all i was implying.....

Compare our cars? Whats to compare? Nothing, you dont turn, i dont do straight lines.

I'm know that a pair of Rotas shouldn't be on a Lexus, whether its a 91 or a 04 SC430.

I just dont like hearing about how sexy and rich IS300s are..that an entry level Lexus directed towards the 20-25 crowd. I almost bought one, still wouldn't mind one. But man I barely like the interior more than my Cobras, and thats not saying much at all. They really really went cheap on the interiors

And my car can turn, I just have to take the skinnies off and put the 18s on

well thats fine, i wasnt saying how i love the car....cause personally im not a huge fan, i like them but would never buy one.....

Just dont go cheap with it.....allll im saying haha.

Friend of mine had a 98 cobra vert, yea i wasnt to impressed with the interior and all the rattles and shit it had after 90k miles. He had some springs on it and it handled pretty well, better then the teg? nahhhh

But compared to the stock SUV suspension they come with, night and day.
