The wheels look fantastic. And I'm loving that rear diffuser as well.

Not enough photos of this could ever be taken. Love it. And I'm so surprised about how much I like the wheels. Sad that they won't fit the stock car.

By the way, I have 19 x 10 +40 with a 275 on the back and it barely rubs, so you could have gotten away with it.

I was referencing an earlier post. Look below.

And this is incorrect, 19 x 10 +42 will work with a 275 with super minimal rubbing on wide-running tires, and no rubbing at all on skinny-running tires.

^^^^OK, BTW RCF wheels have the same dimensions as GSF wheels. And 42mm is incorrect. RCF and GSF rear wheels have an offset of 41mm. As I said I'm running modified RCF wheels on my ISF with 295/30/19 Bridgeston SD-04s. My rear wheels have 5mm shaved from the hub making the new offset 46mm. My fenders are rolled flat and since the modification I do not rub.

Not to turn this into a fitment thread, but isn't the ISF much different fitment from the IS?

^^^^Because 275/35/19 has to high an OD. A 275/30/19 would have worked just fine. As I said I'm running 295/30/19s.

Wow what an amazing build!

What does it take to fit an OEM RCF or GSF wheel to an IS350? Those wheels look like they were made for the IS and look great!

This is an incredible build. I always wondered if someone would make a new IS-F. It’s amazing how quickly you got everything done.
