After looking at numerous pics of the graphite wheels, I've changed my mind and opted for the regular 17". I think that they are a little too dark for the majority of the colors(especially blue & yellow) , except for maybe black or silver. I would have liked a chrome wheel better. Any thoughts. I will make my final decision when I see them in person.
I like the graphite rims on the yellow IS300 best. I agree that they're too dark for the other colors, and I don't like chrome on most cars. For a shiny rim, I'd go with polished over chrome.
I'll say this again: I dig yellow cars with dark rims (e.g., the yellow ITR with graphite-colored rims).

This is the weirdest issue, I can’t seem to get my car started after finishing my front suspension. I think it has to do with the igniter and other box that both sat on top of the strut mounts when I was installing. There’s a new battery in the car, yet I don’t even see a light when I open the...
