penta fits is250, but not is350. if yu have a 250, penta is good for you.

i would say trade for the penta. looks better IMO.

265/65/19 in the rear you're going to have a FULL fender/bumper modification

Stay with your wheels! I've seen em in person and it flows with the car. Penta looks great in pictures but in person it looks cheap
