Mark hooked me up with a great set of wheels and springs for my IS...
I couldn't be happier...
It's exactly what the car needed.
I should have my camera back this weekend .I'll post pics.

Any one have an idea on how to get rid of the TPMS lights on my dash?

Wow looks like you found a new flavor of the month. Looks good. Can't wait to see what you switch out to next time.

All I can say is WOW!!! Who knew those aggressive offsets would fit on an IS, and be perfectly flush?

This is why offsets/wheels just confuse the poo out of me. How are 9.5" 24 offset so flush, and same width ~36 offset also look flush?

His tires are pretty stretched. The tires are the reason they look flush.

Actually the Dunlops don't stretch at all. They are a blocky tire. Flush none the less.

Yeah....if you're looking for a good tire to stretch, don't go with the SportMaxx.

Wow! the car and rims are beautiful! Love the wheel setup and thinking about the same for mine. One questions: How is the ride and is there any rubbing issues? I'm amazed you got the 235 on the 9.5. What an amazing ride!
