oh.. and my 19x9.5f 19x11r work bersaglio/lowenhart BS5's, 3in front lip, 4in rear!
. I'll be driving 5 hours to Exotic's in Winston-Salem,NC to get the front lip and trunk spoiler painted/molded(along with everything else that needs paint) and my fenders rolled and pulled and car resprayed.. hopefully it won't need to be too much.. here are some pic's of the wheels after I finally finished assembling them and test fitting one rear.

and after the 2x4's

Feel free to give constructive criticism! Haven't really seen these wheels on an IS or especially as wide as I have them, so I figured it was worth the risk!

you'll not only need stretched tires, but you should consider adjustable camber suspension components in the rear to aid in clearance.
i'm not sure how much you'll be driving this 2is, because the tires won't last long on the stretch and the camber if it's a DD.
if you want to push the limits of what you can fit under the 2is sheetmetal, you'll find that it will require more work and effort than you might have originally anticipated.
best of luck.

I can give credit for thinking outside the box and trying something almost noone has done before, and I HOPE you pull it off, I really do, but like projectdna said, good luck.
I hate to sound negative but if infact they are 11+7 in the rear its gonna be HELLA TOUGH more then hella flush.

I deff. applaud you for trying it. More power to you, but I this is deff. going to be a project. I'd say fenders will probably have to be cut and pulled out a significant amount. I am running 10.5 +22 and that is aggressive as it is. I am pulled, rolled, shaved tabs, and megan camber arms and finally have minimized my rubbing to only large dips. Good luck and I can't way to see how it comes out if all goes as planned for you.

^ no one is saying it can't be done, because it's doable. (anything is doable when you throw enough money at it.)
making the wheels fit will require a lot more work than your simple fender roll, though.
after all, you're the one that thinks that "hopefully it won't need to be too much.."
