not my cup of tea, those look way too small. there are a few members rockin 18's but they have really agreessive fitment + lowered which can be pulled off. i dunoo that just doesnt look right to my eyes but as long as your happy with them screw what i think

I think the wheels (and the car) will look completely different when lowered. You can get F Sport springs from Sewell for $230 and the effect they have on the look of an IS's stance is amazing.
