I’m very close to securing a deal on a white IS-F so pretty excited. Already shopping for the basics (rims, suspension, exhaust) so if some of you owners can chime in on what you guys think are the best brands to pick from?

I used to have a nice Blitz NuR-spec exhaust on my GS400 which was throaty but whisper quiet on the highway. I’m looking for something similar on my future car.

Rims I’m specifically looking for BBS LM’s on this car since it’s a rim I’ve always wanted to try and love the look of. Anyone here running those rims on their car?


Sorry for all the questions but thanks in advance,
Rick

Aren't the BBS LM's discontinued? I'm not sure though.

I thought LMs do not have the right size (18) or offsets for 5x114.3, correct me if I am wrong. Or it could have been CHs I was researching on long time ago.

I'm pretty sure LM's are not discontinued.

As for a fitment for a Lexus I dunno.....anyone?

BBS Japan has the offsets that will fit the IS-F: http://www.bbs-japan.co.jp/
They have the LMs listed here, along with their new LM-R's which I think look great: http://www.bbs-japan.co.jp/pro/pro_i.html

Now the only problem is trying to get those wheels here in the US. Anyone have any suggestions?...Darshana S...

I was originally thinking BBS for my IS-F...but the wait plus they aren't that light to begin with...decided to go to others...HRE, Volks....

Cant believe that any of you would want to replace your beautiful stock rims with those ugly LMs

I'm not feeling the LMs either, but the LM-Rs in 20s would be sick. Do it!

goodluck finding the lm bbs on isf

I believe here in Japan they have the correct offsets. I haven't checked formally yet , but that is what I have been informed.

Pandy-88, you are right. I just got off the phone with BBS Japan and they none of the sizes in LM will fit. The calipers are too big and there is nothing that can be done. Well looks I am going to be looking for a different wheel.

And just for information, the only wheels they said would fit would be RG-R. There were others that could be fitted to the car ,but the wheels would stick out to far ect, ect. There would be have to be modification done to the car if other wheels were to be fitted.

^^The RG-R's don't look that bad on the website. It looks like they have a decent lip

LMs are possibly one of the most beautiful wheels ever made. I was in contact with BBS last week, they still make them, up to 20" now.

I'm trying to get them to make 22"s for the LS
