RcF MY18 Lexus Cheltenham

[Big Rat]

I see they have 3 RcF's for sale at the moment, you could say a cross section of production years in fact a 2015 -a 67 plate and this latest 2018, what do others on here think of the wheels personally I quite like them and think they would make a great winter set....... now if they are priced at a hundred notes each +vat of course I'm having them..........

I think they make the wheels look smaller and a little drab to be honest. Certainly not special. I like the seats though.

Look crap

Not sure about the wheels, like the sat nav screen though 👌

[Stuno1]

Nav screen looks awesome and I really like the wheels. Shame they are heavier than the other ones available on the rcf. Looks much nicer imo. 

Could the nav be fitted to the older models?

I know the wheels aren’t so blingy as ours I was just thinking as a winter set up easier to clean as well I guess, and not machine faced.

Well, when I thought about it a bit more I realise mine are that colour after 20 miles anyway.

Get a price from Tim please mr Rat - those cheap nasty cast fronts might make a reasonably priced spare wheel.

@Comedian You really aren’t as stupid as I look..... I’m on the case 👍

Now as regards the price of these new wheels I’m conscious that there are a number of ‘senior ‘ members on this forum  i don’t want to be responsible for any coronary issues...... I have the prices......😳 I will speak to Tim when I’m there Saturday to see if a group buy is possible

If they're anything like the prices for the ISF alloy wheeels from the dealer........ouch!

my 20 spokes are 1850 each. If it's cheaper to buy an aftermarket set of 4 there really is no point.

Interestingly. I spied this at Coventry on 20th April.
Must have come in for a part ex. Not sure why it's gone to Cheltenham.

I really dislike the wheels. It's why I took the photo.

[Martin F]

The wheels are horrible, and look like something you'd expect to see on a car half the price, but would like to have the Sat Nav screen.

[Stuno1]

Surprised by the wheel comments. They are more simplistic and I think really suit the car. The other offerings are sooooo fussy. 

[Big Rat]

Fantastic we have a split wheel camp...... so to speak. 

I’ll make a confession I know the car, it was Listers Regional Directors allocated vehicle but for some reason it’s come on sale.

I was told ‘ he didn’t like the wheels’ though presumably that’s not why he didn’t keep the vehicle.

They are a very popular choice in Europe and the USA..... I still like them though...... as a winter so there 😂

Couple of sets on eBay 🇺🇸.... Better value for a winter set as long as the postage isn't too steep....

@Mark G would be chuffed if he could get such high MPg

Here's another RC-F a silver carbon 16k miles Reg DX16GYE

[Stuno1]

I can’t decide if the silver and carbon works? I think it would be one to see in person to make my mind up.
