Default First Pics ever: IS250AWD w/ WORK Emotions XT7's 18's
I would be more happier if the TEIN CS Coilover's I bought were compatible. I am now selling them, but to all that are inquiring, I'm trying to sell locally (in Canada at least) before I think about shipping back to the US. I picked them up from Carson Lexus back in January i believe.

These are just quick picks, as a few members were inquiring on how the XT7's would look. Car is dirty as it is raining here.

Front 18 X 8.5 w/ +46 should have gone +38
Rear 18 X 8.5 w/ +38 shoudl have gone +32

It'll look great if it's slammed.

Great choice on the wheels and please keep me updated.

I know, my only choices of rim's were:

1. Advan Model T6
2. Work XT7's

The Advan's were going to cost me ~$5000+ after shipping for 19's w/tires. And well the WORK didn't even come in 19's.

I consider this my winter car, so i thought long and hard and didn't want to spend the money. If it was my primary car then no doubt i would have.

WORK = $1650
Kumho Ecsta SPT = $900
Ray's wheel lug's = $140
Caps = $125
Totalling = $2815.00

ADVAN = $3300
Tires = $1500 Guestimate here...
lugs = 140?
+ 30 freight per tire = $120
Totalling = $5060

As you can see, I took the path of least resistance...

Actually WORK caps were only $120 tax included. Got them at Tires23 here in Toronto.

good choice, i have the same rims (but staggered) and love them............ ONce dropped they will fill the wheel well nicely and make them look larger then they look currently.
