I've always loved the wheels, they look BOLD, but I'm not sure about them on an IS-F. Maybe in a car with a more aggressive look, just my opinion.

The tires look stretched, even if they're not. I've seen different 285s with the same look on 10.5 rims, I guess it depends on the tire.

Thanks, just trying to do my own thing and not follow the crowd. As far as the front lip..........stay tuned.

Haha! That would be 4G63 powered, although I have been looking at the E46 for a track car

Thanks man! You were the first IS F on here reppin the SSR's. Your help made pulling the trigger on these easier

.

I was gonna do SBC, but it looks too much like chrome. So I went with a custom color. They look bright in direct light but very subtle out of the light. Pictures don't do the color justice. Yeah I LOVE the streched look too

I love SP1's. They're one of top all time old school wheels!!! You just revived history!

Rod Millen IS430 V8 w/SSR SP1's reverse lip and really high offsets haha!

Can you post some close up pics of the rear wheel/tire and then a rear quarter shot from behind? I would like to see how the tire fits and would like to see the offset from behind.
Thanks,
Peter

Yeah, a 295 on the front only because I doubt it would be possible to put the 315 it really needs on it.

Wow I honestly didn't think SP1's would look good on an IS-F but you've proved me wrong!

Well, regardless of how it looks to us, the fitment is exactly what Toyo calls for on their website:

Code:

Tire Size 	 Product Code 	 Approved Rim Width
285/25ZR20  	 246580  	   	10.5
