Default Pic Request: Rotifom BLQ on IS

Hi there,

i've never seen those rims on an IS, and I can't really imagine if those wheels will look good on my car.

and how does a 235/35 tire look on a 19x8.5 rim? there will be no stretch at all, right?

any pics will help. thanks!

the 3piece concave BLQs are really beautiful, but here in germany they are ridiculous pricey (us ~1000 $ ger ~1600euro

and it's a loss that the cheaper 1 piece BLQ don't come in 19x10 or something like that. 19x8.5 is just to not wide enough for the rear wheels..

Like trancepimp said, I've been dying to see someone slam a 2IS on these same wheels.

Goodluck.

a friend of mine did this quick photoshop


I hope the owner of the car okay with this, if not i will delete it.

what do you think? i don't know yet, 19" is normally perfect for the IS, but this looks like the BLQ needs to be 20"
