I think the wheels would have looked nicer if there were no blue on it...

Nice fitment and lip. Looks like it scrapes. I guess the east coast def. have a different style than the west coast.

Yeah, I like the color match too.
Not a fan of the aggressive offsets though. It looks cool but isn't very practical for sport driving. Cutting or shaving fenders is not for me...unless a widebody mod is done.

Yeah your right, but its pretty flush. More so then most are willing to run anyways. I've been looking at the 2IS section and yeah they are nuts!

It looks like 3.5" lip for the rears, that explains why the wheels are 20x10. I tried 20x10.5 with 3.5" lip and they stick out a bit. I went with 20x10.5 with 3" lip and fitment is perfect! In my case I haven't lowered my car yet, no rubbing at all when driving alone, but last week I had a passenger on the back and it rubbed a couple of times. I guess I have to roll my fenders, especially if I want to drop the car.

Sorry but the wheels look cheap. The pictures are really good but could use a better background IMO (it's too busy)

yeah, if you drop it then some minor shaving/rolling should be done. I'm going to wait for my coilovers to come in for my car and then start prepping it for some really aggressive offsets.

The owner of the IS-F said he felt with the drop on Eibachs performed better then stock.

Car shoot was done late because the sun went down to nothing real quick after we did the rolling. By the time they installed the wheels the sun was setting already.

Nice fitment, but not really a fan of the wheel style or color. It definitely screams South Florida.
