Theses look very nice, and lightweight, which is definitely a plus on the IS-F. Did you notice a performance improvement due to the lower unsprung mass ?

Those look clean! Yea big ups for posting setup and offsets. Do you have a shot from the side so we can see the flushness on the fronts and rears? Your offsets seem really aggressive but it looks fine!

IMHO these look much better than the HREs. I was actually looking into the same exact setup, but in 20s. he he. I ended up ordering from VIP status as well, but I went with a different look. Less go and more show for me.

Finally someone on CL got the correct offsets on the RE30's. Nice to see some lip on these. Looks great!

I'm so glad you've picked those wheels. OEM IS-F radiator fan wheels gotta go.
