Looking for a nice all black wheel for my 08 is250 awd. Would like to go with a 18 inch wheel and 225/40 tires for everyday driving. Any help would be great. Thanks.

I've been thinking about these three rims for my IS 250 AWD: the F Sport forged 18's, TSW Nurburgring with the matte gunmetal finish, and the Wedssport SA55M. A good tire for everyday driving comfort, noise, braking, and handling are the Michelin MXM4s. I've seen only one other AWD that had those on the stock 17's.

I photoshopped these rage r20's on my car. I like them and they are not to expensive

TSW has a great visual tool


They are 18" TSW Interlagos pretty decent weight had 17" on my S2000

My wheels arrived but the non local shop forgot to balance 3 of them so I dropped off at a local shop to balance. Will post pics soon

Not exactly black but i just got a set of Gen4 GS350 Fsport wheels and they dont look too bad.

What size wheels are they and how wide?


I was wondering if i could run 18x8.5 all the way around with no issues. 225/40/18 tire.

I want the miro 111's

I wanted the Miro 111's as well and then I looked into their reviews. Apparently a lot of bimmer drivers had issues with the rims cracking. Definitely look into this prior to purchase.

I think you should be OK even with 235; as along as you are close to the 45mm offset. For the fronts, I am running 235x40x19 (8 inches width and 45 offset) and no rubbing. They were rubbing quite a bit at first with the 15mm spacers.
For the rear, you might want to run some spacers if you want to be more flushed.

I'm currently on 235 40 18 on wheels 18x8.5 with 35 offset. no rubbing and I'm dropped on H&R springs.
