This is by far the sickest IS I've ever seen. Everything is just perfect, including those amazing wheels. Wish they had the IS350 here in Europe. Only the IS250 for us but I don't really like the it's engine.

Hi RRGS,
Thanks for the kind words! I'm surprised they don't have the IS350 in Europe..

Yes, unfortunately no IS350 for us, and if I import one I'm better off buying an IS-F . I'm driving a GS right now. Keep posting more pictures, I love it! Are those the stock taillights?

No those are not stock taillights they are the Spec-D Led ones..
I'd trade my IS for a new GS any day , thats a beautiful car with more space . My only issue with the IS is that it is a bit small on the inside.

Where were you able to purchase your wheels? I am having trouble finding anywhere that sells 19x8.5 19x10 with +38 +45 offset.

Hi Zosopage,
I got my wheels from Element Wheels,
They are Vossen VSF1 series. Vossen makes the offset especially to fit the Lexus IS. I am pretty sure the offset was 38 in the front and 45 in the rear, with the width was 8 1/2 " in the front and 10" in the rear.
Anyway Vossen and Element wheels guarantees the fitment on the Lexus IS for their Vossen wheels, just got to let them know its for a Lexus IS.
Ordered the wheels from Element wheels, shipped to me.

I have been checking Element Wheels and several other places for that exact size. The only size I am seeing for most wheels 5x114.3 is 32mm front and 38mm rear. I did find 35 front and 40 rear in a different set. What do you think of 35 front and 40 rear in the same 8 1/2" front and 10" rear?

Hey Zosopage,
I'm no wheel expert , but that sounds as if it should fit with no issues. It would depend on the tires you run with them.
I would suggest talking to Element wheels and just asking them if a certain wheel type would fit your specific car, most wheel and tire places will tell you if a certain wheel should fit or not, they have lots of experience and knowledge and generally wouldn't sell you a set that doesn't fit.
