Re: Newbie (IS300 owner)
Hmm, well the TSWs didn't seem cheap when the cost came out of my checking account. I've never personally liked Volks and I like the look of these rims so that is what I bought. This is my daily driver and I don't have thousands of dollars to dump into things like brakes. I would love to have a big brake kit on her... but tey are already upgraded with the rotors and pads, why am I going to pay that much more just to have the paint? Thank you for your opinions though.
Isn't is funny how all the MKIII owners turn to the IS? I had 4 of them myself, but I didn't have very good luck with them sadly...

Lucky! I think we are going to get another one to have as our toy/project car. Maybe it will keep me from being so rough on the Lex.

Volk makes a lot of different types of wheels. I can't see how you could dislike them all. Volk GT-U's, BBS LM's, iForged Formula's or HRE 540R's would all have been good choices.
All I'm saying to you is that you have to pay to play, and if you can't build it right, don't build at all. You bought a luxury-sport car, and it deserves better.
