Lightly-used wheels being sold off a Lexus IS F with the tires or without.
While flipping through the Club Lexus Marketplace, we came across this listing for a set of Work Emotion CR Kiwami wheels from a 2008 Lexus IS F. These rollers were listed by “blackisF08” and while they will fit a variety of vehicles, the images here show that these Work wheels look great on an original IS F. Best of all, they are being sold in ready-to-mount form, or you can buy them without the tires and pressure sensor.
The Details
When the OP initially listed the wheels from his 2008 Lexus IS F for sale he offered up a handful of pictures and the basic details that someone buying wheels would need.
I have for sale my barely used Work Emotion CR Kiwami ultimate wheels in silver. They are size 19×8.5 35 and 19×9.5 38
$2200 shipped with tires, center caps and sensors $1800 shipped wheels only with center caps
For those unsure, the wheels are 19 inches in diameter, with the fronts being 8.5-inches wide with a 35-millimeter offset and the rears are 9.5-inches wide with a 38-millimeter offset. The “sensors” are the tire pressure monitor sensors, so anyone who buys the assembled wheels and tires will be able to bolt them right up, but if you don’t want the tires and sensors, the OP is also offering to sell the bare wheels with center caps for $400 less.
Later on in the thread, we learn that the front tires are Michelin Pilot Super Sports measuring 245/30/19 while the rear tires are General G-Max RS measuring 275/30/19. The front tires have around 10,000 miles on them and the rears have less than 1,000, so anyone who wants a bolt-up tire-and-wheel package can plan to drive on this rubber for a while.
Pricing Update
After a couple of weeks without any action, the OP lowered the price, now asking $2,100 for the whole package shipped, $1,700 for just the wheels and center caps shipped and $1,500 for the wheels picked up. In hunting around online, these wheels list for around $500 each, so whether you are buying the whole package or just the wheels, you are getting a good deal.
"Before I was old enough to walk, my dad was taking me to various types of racing events, from local drag racing to the Daytona 500," says Patrick Rall, a lifetime automotive expert, diehard Dodge fan, and respected auto journalist for over 10 years. "He owned a repair shop and had a variety of performance cars when I was young, but by the time I was 16, he was ready to build me my first drag car – a 1983 Dodge Mirada that ran low 12s. I spent 10 years traveling around the country, racing with my dad by my side. While we live in different areas of the country, my dad still drag races at 80 years old in the car that he built when I was 16 while I race other vehicles, including my 2017 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and my 1972 Dodge Demon 340.
"Although I went to college for accounting, my time in my dad’s shop growing up allowed me the knowledge to spend time working as a mechanic before getting my accounting degree, at which point I worked in the office of a dealership group. While I was working in the accounting world, I continued racing and taking pictures of cars at the track. Over time, I began showing off those pictures online and that led to my writing.
"Ten years ago, I left the accounting world to become a full-time automotive writer and I am living proof that if you love what you do, you will never “work” a day in your life," adds Rall, who has clocked in time as an auto mechanic, longtime drag racer and now automotive journalist who contributes to nearly a dozen popular auto websites dedicated to fellow enthusiasts.
"I love covering the automotive industry and everything involved with the job. I was fortunate to turn my love of the automotive world into a hobby that led to an exciting career, with my past of working as a mechanic and as an accountant in the automotive world provides me with a unique perspective of the industry.
"My experience drag racing for more than 20 years coupled with a newfound interest in road racing over the past decade allows me to push performance cars to their limit, while my role as a horse stable manager gives me vast experience towing and hauling with all of the newest trucks on the market today.
