Hey what's up everyone, I've been meaning to do my intro for quite awhile now, but I sell my vehicles too damn soon to start a thread on them. Well its been about 3 months since I've had my IS300 so its pretty much in the family for good!

I had an 07 Acura TL Type S with a few mods with some staggered 19" Exe Tenfolds. Below are pics of my TL with my Tenfolds and of course pictures of my new baby! I'm considering putting the Tenfolds on my IS and would like any input from members running or have ran a similar setup. Below are the specs of the Tenfolds.

Wheel and Tire Specs
Fronts: 19x8.5 +35 w/ 235/35
Rears: 19x9.5 +40 w/ 245/35

At stock height that 19" rim+tire combo will fit well, might look a little 4x4 status but it will be all good.
The tire might even fill in a little bit of the wheel gap up front.
But you shouldn't have any issues with rubbing or anything at all (stock height).

If you eventually lower it i would suggest 225 or 215's up front depending on how low you go and how bad the roads are in your area. 235 should be fine for the rear, any bigger is probably not good for lowered IS. (I'm lowered & I can't put 245's on my rear without rubbing).

tenfolds would look good on the IS with a drop

I test fitted one on the front and it barely fit. The tire was sticking waaaay out from the fender well and had only about 2-3 finger gap before hitting the inner fender liner. I didn't even try the rear since they are a full inch wider with 245's.

I'd have to go with a higher offset and some more narrow tires to pull them off right. I think I'm going to just sell these.....

Below are two pics of the test fit. Thanks for the input everyone!

Oh I forgot to mention, putting on 19's you might wanna consider rolling your fenders

not a fan of those wheels.

the rim size and offset of those wheels should fit, hellaflush style with a stretched tire. once you lower the wheels camber in more.

I rolled and slightly pulled the fenders on my TL-S when I had these on her. These just seem to aggressive for a DD.

Thanks man. The Tenfolds are actually off my IS now and will be for sale soon.

That's what I was thinking, but I dont want the hellaflush look on this car since its my daily and put 2K+ miles on her a month. I ran rear negative camber in my TL-S and rolled and slightly pulled my fenders with it lowered with these, but it wasn't my daily.


Thanks for the input everyone!

just a little lower will make it look right

Well I guess my intro thread was a bust...lol. I just sold my baby yesterday. I will be deploying soon so I didn't want her to sit for a year so I let her go and not looking for something a little more "rugged."

I was thinking about possibly a 98-00 GS300 or SC300/400. Any input would greatly help!
