I can't believe everyone is doing 20's on the IS.. It seems to big of a wheel for the IS but it surprisingly looks good.. Nice pics..

You must be rubbing on the front with the 245-35 aren't you??? I tried 245-35and rubbed so i went with 235-35... Your car looks good with the wheels though

I love bling but it seems a little overpowering for this car. Looks good, though.

Nice set of wheels. Just need a drop and it looks perfect. Eibach springs is what you need if considering give it a drop. It gives a very mild drop.
