GI: 19" Carlsson 1/12 Chrome Edition for Lexus

Carlsson Japan for Lexus
1/12 Chrome Edition
19x8.5 +40
19x10 +45
5x114.3
Lexus Brake Clearance

New w/ minor shipping damage. One wheel had a chip in the chrome paint on the tire side of the lip which I sanded out and primed until I figured out what I was going to do with it.

Carlsson Japan Page

$4k + Shipping

It is what it is and the price is what they're worth to me. Even then I'm not 100%, it took me a while to find these in this size and condition. Retail was a few Yen short of $8K by current exchange rates.

Super, super rare and a timeless design at that. Can't believe you'de even consider letting go of these. GLWS though.

no worries.

it's more of a status tax than anything. carlsson is a mercedes tuner and you know how the japanese love that (look how many carlsson aigner style paint jobs popped up last year). then you have a japanese only line for lexus cars which make them more exclusive. on top of that these are the 19" chrome edition (sbc type of finish) which skyrocket the price. regardless of the hype, at the end of the day they are cast one piece wheels by ronal.

my price is half of retail so i don't think i need to do too much justifying there. even at $4k it's a "gauging interest" thread, not a gaurenteed sale. these are my second favorite wheels and you can see how many people are surprised that i'm even considering selling. i said it would never happen but i'm considering it in interest fo the bigger picture.

20" Carlsson 1/12 UL. these are forged and you don't want to see the price tag. there's a sick y32 in one of my '07 mags with them in brilliant edition (silver). i'll try and grab a pic.

Beautiful wheels, GLWS.

Wish I had the $4k, these would be ideal for my build!
