Not my taste in wheels bro.

I would save your cash and wait on a pair that you like, wheels will always come and go and they'll always be a newer & nicer pair out (wish other parts where like that).

Not a bad looking wheel, if you don't mind the swiss cheese bolt patterns. I have no clue about the alloy quality and stuff like that - never heard of them.

Hate to rain on your parade, but ICW wheels are cheap for a reason. When I bought my solara, it already had icw wheels on it and they were junk! Clear coat was coming off, poor paint underneath, just all around cheap wheels, and the guy only had them for a year (Dallas, TX- so no snow/salt to add to the problem). I would never reccomend them! Definitely wait and get a better quality wheel, you will be much happier.

white does not match dwp at all, it actually clashes...

also you may want to wait and buy 18s or 19s...

I like white rims on white. It a very clean look. Those rims are kind of busy for "clean" white on white but to each his own.

whiteflash had a nice DWP with white rims.
