Sorry to hear about the crash.

How did you stretch a 245 tire on a 10.5" rear??????

I don't know, ask johnnyboy! :P
It rides just fine! Crazy rear wheels though, when you really look at it!

Hey IS owners!

I'm a complete newbie here, just got a 2007 IS250 AWD earlier today.

Got a 'wheels' question right away:

I have an opportunity to upgrade to factory 18" wheels for relatively cheap. Now, I do see that factory 18" wheels were not offered as an option on the AWD models. Any explanation as to why? Is it not a good idea to install factory eighteens on an AWD IS 250? I'd appreciate if anyone could shed some light on this topic.

the OEM 18" wheels are staggered, therefore they shouldnt belong on an AWD.

no because those threads will die too, they should have never been seperated it was a stupid idea so that ppl could have more attention to their cars, it should be stickied back the way it used to be, it was helpful and very informative
