What do you guys think of this wheel?
Tenzo just released this wheel Type-M Black w/ red stripe. It is kind of Time Attack trend right now. It is one piece wheel so no worry for TMPS problem. They offer staggered fitment available in 19 for our IS. This is cast wheel so the weight could be a problem.

That's actually pretty sweet. Like Brian said, it'd look tight on a black IS!

Yeah, I kinda like how the wheel looks without lip. Well, I have to wait until I receive my tax refund then I will order this wheel.

I have a feeling that wheel would look good on a black IS.

I Like These... But The Sizes And Offsets Will Be Difficult On Our Cars.

Might look good on the red as well..I don't like wheels that have the 'multi- bolt pattern'. In my opinion wheels shouldn't be one size fits all

But I like the spoke design

Nice thing about these is the staggered concave offsets. The rear will sink in @ 3" to the center. This is kinda how it will look

The multibolt pattern kills it for me. Its such a cheapo thing to do. If they didnt have that I would say they are great (besides the cast thing). They look good but I'm not digging the bolt holes. I could still see them looking pretty tight on an IS.
