Idk if ur crazy but that's a Hella nice ride, I'd "drive it. I got a question for ya.. At +28 with the 10.5 what size tires are you running in the back and what fender mods?

I am currently in a similar suspension situation (springs) that's giving me trouble.
I rolled and slight pulled my fenders but at +27 something is almost hitting my rim over bumps.

^ So hot! Karasha, mad props on your IS... looks so clean & classy. That WALD kit looks sooo good! Needless to say I'm jalous. Makes me want to upgrade my 2011 IS asap.

Firstly, thanks!

Secondly, I am running a 245/35/19 in the rear.
I am currently at *gasp* no fender mods. Mostly because I haven't gotten my butt to the shop to do them. I rub in the rear only over dips in the road... so I'm going to do a slight roll/pull/cut/whatever and go from there. My tires are HATING me right now *rub rub rub*

I figured tire sizes are my problem and it's becoming evident. My tires look like piñatas at the sidewall I am running 245/40. U may not be crazy but u lazy get them fenders rolled.

Bahahahaha, I'm not lazy! I'm incredibly busy!! Not enough hours in the day I'm not a wheel fitment guru like a few members on here... I wish I could help you more. All I know is with a 10.5+29 and a 245/35 right now I'm definitely needing some fender work done.

Thank you, Sffd! When I see threads popping up with the caliber of cars like yours and other members, it made me hold off on posting up my own. My car wasn't worthy... until now. And even now, it's still in the baby stages. The modding never ends

THANKS BRO!
As for the wheels, they are being taken off here pretty soon and being powdered... Gotta do it before the pursuit!
