Here is GPRAuto aka Guillermo's IS300 sitting on Megan Coilovers, the Rear LCA's are maxed out with Negative Camber and some nice toe in, wheel specs are Work Euroline SL 18x9.5+7 and 18x10-5 with some holy mother of god.. 215/35's all around..


This foo is still debating on pulling the rear out a bit but he is loving the POKE, mexiflush, whatever you wanna call it.... my boy is pushing beyond the limits.

Now guys let's be nice with the comments.... NAH!!!!, haters bring it on!! LOL

Wow.. Kinda hard to see 1st gen IS being VIP though.. They are more sporty to me. Looks nice but semi looks a little over doing it. pretty crazy stretch for some 10's haha. I'm in the works of doing 10.5 with 275 or 285 haha.. no rubbing??

Well Guillermo is a good dude, and I can appreciate the work, but I still don't think a first gen IS3 is the right car to try that look with. It's a small, plastic-y, ricey *** little sports car that really isn't good at anything else. (and I love mine for what it is )

I think persons who do the stretched look should use larger cars to pull it off. I'm from the Bombs and Kustoms world and I just don't think a tiny plastic box car mini-lexus is the right vehicle for that look. Just me...... Props to Guillermo on the efforts.

I say upgrade to an is250/350 and try it since it is a little larger car.

Like the wheels and the car... but the fitment is not for me. If I saw that, my first thought is those cheap geo metros with 13" wheels sticking way out

Lol!!!!!!!.... not for me.

wheels looks awesome.. but the tire looking like that is retarded. the front lip is not my style. you got window visors in the front only? looks weird. Your tailights looks cool and diffrent. and im loving the WHITE.

your car looks sick but i'm not feeling the rims, like olt said 1is' are more tuner cars. if you wanna go hella flush or sticking the fck out like that get a 2is or a gs. having your wheels that flush makes your car look stubby like when you edit your car to look small with big *** rims
