WOW, I got those same wheels! But mine are still sitting in boxes in my garage. 18x8 in the front, 8x8.5 rear, from an 06 IS350. I was wondering about spacers too. Do you think you will eventually get spacers? How is the fit? Are they flush with the fenders?

Needs a drop and some type of side skirts and rear lip IMO.

$127 is a bit high to mount/balance 4 wheels. I get them done for $10-$15 each here

$127 is the total price of the 4 tires, plus the balance, plus the installation...

BTW here's a photoshop of what my car will look like with a drop and tint.

Looks good, I still wish those wheels came with a more metalic/darker color...o well.
