My bad wheels specs are 18x8 +30 all around. With 215/35 tires. The lip I picked up from a friend of mines for dirt cheap. Like a $100 lol. But check eBay if anything.

Just picked up my IS300 this weekend. Never had a Lexus or Toyota before. First thing I did was adjust the ride height a little bit on the Stance GR+ coils, changed the oil with Mobil 1 synth and Mobil 1 filter and washed her. Oh and I had to add a shift **** to the car for the M/T, looking for something permanent though so the temp **** will do. Timing belt kit will be up next this weekend.

Plans are, to sell/trade the 17x8 and 17x9 SSR rims and spacers and gets stocks, trade the Stance GR+ coils for aftermarket lowering spring/shock combo (need to extra money for some other mods), and get a bodykit. Maybe the CWEST body kit or WALD kit. Oh and now that I remember I'm also going to swap out the Altezza grill for a stock Lexus grill
