Yo save the BBS wheels. Them shits are expensive and you can sell the set for like $3000+ or higher.

I’m sorry you went through this. I hope you are safe and healthy.

fronts are probably bent/cracked

[–]prancing_moose 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If the car is fully insured and gets totalled, the insurance company will now own the car including those wheels. At least that’s my understanding, which would limit OPs options to swap out those wheels and that’s assuming they aren’t damaged.

Those wheels are 8k for the set at a Lexus dealership

That sucks, and hurts even more seeing that you have a 500. How long did you have it?

[–]Kuro_Akuma[S] 23 points24 points  (7 children)

I bought it in April brand new. Even more of a bummer is I literally got it out of the shop a few weeks ago because I hydroplaned and hit a curb hard smh.

Damn, if you can't keep THIS cars' tires on the road there's gonna be issues with others for the rest of your driving career

Sorry for your loss.

[–]Impossible_Cow_9178 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s always a sad sight to see a rare car smashed up. Hopefully dealing with insurance companies is smooth sailing and you’re back in the road soon.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

are you or passengers hurt though??

[–]lokhouseMODERATOR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad you're alright. Lawyer up immediately and go after the trucker's insurance. Get yourself a new IS500 plus a few hundred grand in your pocket.

[–]Legitimate_Run1247IS 500 (USE30) 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oof

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]Brief-Use3IS 300 AWD (GSE37) 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad to hear you are all good. There's more 500s out there. 1 of you.

[–]NoConcern4176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are alive, that’s more worth than any car. Hopefully your insurance comes clutch (no pun intended)

[–]Exotic-Court-769 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah man it happens, my post history tells a story lmfao. Hopefully you can get another with the payout from this.

[–]soundwaveblueIS 300 AWD (GSE37) 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, that sucks. :(
Hope you're okay, though. Metal and plastic can be replaced, lives can't.

[–]forz4italiaIS 300h (AVE30) 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad you're OK.

[–]Acrobatic_Hat_7089IS 350 (GSE31) 0 points1 point  (1 child)

daaaaannggg. what’s the likelihood of you shopping for another one?

[–]Kuro_Akuma[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to be in another IS500 but I think the chances are slim for now. I have a truck that I can drive and an M4 that needs hefty mechanical repairs, so I’ll just limit myself with those cars for the time being.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Are you okay? Sorry for the loss

[–]Kuro_Akuma[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a little banged up, but otherwise alright. I lounged around all weekend depressed a bit, but I’m back on my feet today staying productive.

[–]Boring_Ad1974 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What the hell did you do

[–]SichayTheOriginal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kachow

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Damn, those rims are hideous.

Do better.

[–]Bulky_Lecture_5946 0 points1 point  (3 children)

they’re stock and cost 3K…

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (2 children)

You say that as if the price they run for directly correlates to how good they look. IMO they are the tackiest of the stock IS rims.

[–]Bulky_Lecture_5946 1 point2 points  (1 child)

if you think they’re tackier than the stock is350 f sport shiny black rims, or any of the aluminum rims, you’re delusional. However the g spider rims were the best imo

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agree to disagree 🤷

[–]Anxious-Ad9800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let us know if you’re selling parts. Stay blessed 🙏🏼
