Default Has anyone used Genesis Coupe wheels on their IS?

Someone is selling these for a good price and I was wondering if anyone here had them on their IS.



fronts are 19 x8 +35
rears are 19x 8.5 +35

Anyone see a problem with the offsets?

I might try them on this weekend or the next, I'll post my results if I do.

Thanks

It's a nice clean, OEM look.

Wheels look good, and so do the specs. What's up with the runned-overed look in the first pic, lol!

Wow, they really do look good on your IS. They look like they belong on that car.

I hate to be repetitive, but do something about your center caps. :P the current ones look cheap IMO, I love those wheels.

Hankook. I have the same tires but 18". Awesome tires BTW. Handling and ride comfort was improved significantly.

Those Genesis wheels looks great on the IS. It resembles the OEM look, yet fashionably sportier. I say do it!

Here's some shots from fnkISC808's car:
