My car is a daily driver and I need offsets that drive like stock. I also have adult sized kids and when my wife and 2 kids ride with me, I need clearance. That means front around 35 or 36. Rear around 44-45.
Plus, I don't like wheels that fit outside of the fender. That's for younger people, not us older guys....at least not this older guy.
What???? where do you see that the wheel is outside the fender???

I've seen these wheels in person many times...they sit tuck under the fender where they belong...these were made for that car so the offset fits the ride...if you are worry about all the weight in your daily driver, I wouldn't get 20 inch wheels...stick with your 18" factory wheels...if you are already worry about weight then you will be complaining about how fast you will need tires...

all large aftermarket wheels burn through tire alot faster than stock...

The approximate offset i posted is based on my tape measurement skills, which I am sure is incorrect.

WHat the heck are you talking about??
I don't recall saying anything about tire wear.
I didn't say the wheels stick out past the fender on the car in the pic. I'm saying 30-something rear offset on a 10 in wide wheel would stick out on a GS. Some people like that but not me.
I have 20's now and have no problem riding my family aroiund.
Why is my wheel preference your concern?

This isn't your deal but let me add that I would love to buy these wheels. But I want the fitment I like. A deal isn't worth the headaches.

Can you call the manufacturer to get the specs?
If not a wheel professional should be able to do the measurements.
Goodroads can tell you. I'm sure other shops can as well.

from all of your questions, i guess u are not aware of many of the things in the 3 piece wheel business. Not all wheels are created equally. Most of them are based on the same setup where offsets are pretty weak so customers dont complain so these wheels were built for a 2IS which as the exact same offsets as a 3GS. Also, Marion, &Swiss, Autocouture, and Klass (which were all the same company) got sold to Asanti so they have no idea about the offsets. 3 piece wheels are all BS, same parts with different names expect for HRE and the japanese wheels. They make and use their own parts.

So that being said, these wheels will fit with minimal rubbing or any of that crap

I agree that a wheel that fits on a GS should fit an IS.
Maybe I will try that test fit.

I'm sorry but this statement is so untrue. I've ran aftermarket wheels on all my vehicles and they have all lasted me a very long time. What really sets how long your tires will last is one alignment, two treadwear number and finally your driving style. Hell on my Integra I've ran sticky tires and daily drove the car and still managed to get a lot out of the tires.

Saw the wheels Fri nite. Looks like they would fit fine on a GS.
