My friend, you have almost castrated your IS! My honest opinion is that these wheels should go on your wife's IS250, the stocks back on the IS-F until you can find some larger, more masculine wheels. I would suggest you get a nicely offset wheel, as someone else explained, in 19 or 20 inches with 10 inches of width in the rear. This car is a 5.0 liter V8 producing ungodly amounts of power and these wheels do not do the car justice.

The IS 2nd gen forum has a thread with aftermarket wheels. Take a look in there, you may get some ideas of better choices.

He wanted to stay with the same specs as the Lexus BBS wheels...so If he likes it like that...then that's good enough for him...I mean the wheels look nice and he didn't want to mess up the specs...so props to him to stick to the lexus specs.

Could not have said it better myself!!!! I guess it is all relative......compared to my twin turbo, the IS-F is the female

not bad, some spacers would prob give u a better stance, u need an aggressive offset which is what it deserves since the car is a monster. size doesnt matter with the right stance/poke/stretch/drop 17's can even look good.lets see the isF wheels on the is250 hehe by the way nice turbo
