Default Help Needed - thinking of Work VS-XX on my 3IS, help sizing!!

Hey 2IS owners,

I'm new to lexus and am sure you all know who this beautiful 2IS belongs to below. Of course the fenders are rolled in the rear.

My car is on lease for 3 years and was wondering I probably won't roll fenders due to the fact its on lease, but what size would you recommend if i went 19" or 20" with VSXX on 3IS? Since its pretty new, I don't think many members of the 2IS forums would know.. any advice would be helpful








how about this black one below?

If I remember correctly... there's nothing to roll in the rear on the new 3IS. You would get better answers asking for fitment in the 3IS subforum :/

Are you planning on lowering it?
You could always get camber arms if you're messing with suspension anyways

Aaaand I would get 19's :]

i agree 19s will fit my needs more - does anyone know who owns the black with blue VSXX in the pics above? I think those are 19s if i'm not mistaken...

It's a very old shot of Dangy's car. I agree with above though, you should ask a few guys in the 3is forum who have thrown on some more aggressive wheels (Juvi?)

I not sure about 3is but for 2is you need to roll fender on the rear and also need to move bumper tab in the front to get that fitment.
