the 4" lip is actually a good idea.. it looks good... but maxsing out at 3.5" that i think is perfect... i ran a 3.5" setup before... looks great!

First of all, why? LOL Second of all I wish you good luck if you're ordering those wheels. I hope you read the thread about getting rusted wheels.

If I did it all over again I would do a 20" in the rear and a 19" in the front to balance the look. That tire was spec for our car. I liked it but now looking at it compared to my current car it looks huge I think 3" is good for the IS. You dont want to over due it IMO.

Car is long gone, actually another member on here has the car. I did that size tire to be within factory spec and I do not like stretched tires. I am running 295/25 on a 10.5" wide rim right now. Everyone has there taste/style Plus the roads I drive on I would kill the lips of my rims from the pot holes and ......

360 forged..... hope it works out for you, from what i know they're pretty shady.... and that they've always been own/ managed by forged distributing, which is own by asanti again this is from what i know...

but if they are offering a full refund if they arent done in 5 weeks then, i guess they're trying to do good...

heres my rear

i just measured and its 3.5' which the after the first week i was bored of the size hahah BIGGER!
Matte black face, black crome lips


you can always buy SmokeyGS's wheels.... save you stress?

Damn Tommy thats some sick wheels you got there. Whats your offset on the rears and fronts?
Yo "MDGRWL" maybe you should go with the same size and offsets like Tommy's wheels. But 360 forged, I too heard some horrible stories about them, thats why im going to a different route for my new wheels, to come soon

Guys quit the negativity about his wheels.

He is purchasing them from a VERY RELIABLE source

and they are assuring that the wheels are going to be both built, and finished with top notch quality the way they should be...

His wheels are NOT being purchased direct from 360. So quit hating...

thanks phil... cant wait till eos so we can talk about some mods

but offsets are "Flush-exy" hahah i dont know, but i am very very flush, i can call them after labor day for the offsets...

360 forged- what my homie at jonari tells me... not so cool, but lets hope for the best, i'm sure its all good, if they're offering a full refund

ok ok no more flaming, just giving some advice to a fellow CL.. Thats why we're here, help each right? Well, 6 months ago i was about to purchase some wheels from 360 Forged until i heard some shady news and i backed off. Its a investment and cost a lot to play. If i was in the same situation again i would want some advice as i did in the past.
Tommy for sure, haha i think we have the same ideas when it comes down to modding. i wanna see your ride in person tho.. I got something to show all you guys to, hopefully soon maybe sooner i HOPE!! lolz
