Nice! Mine should be here end of April, went with burning black, polished full reverse lip, Gold assembly bolts. I have my lugs, swift springs, and 2 sets of different color center caps waiting.

Cool man burning black is a really nice finish, though I prefer some contrast since my car is Atomic Silver. What color is your car?

Should be getting my lugs tomorrow. Planning to stop by Work Wheels to pick up the adapters on the way to the tire shop on Thursday. I should have them mounted then if there aren't any issues

That's a color I wish they still offered on the IS. Did you get 19s or 20s for your 4GS? Post some pics when you get them on your car, looking forward to seeing that setup.

I went conservative also, 19x9 +34 R disk up front and 19 x 10 +36 O disk in the rear. It's about a 2" lip up front and 3.5" lip in the rear. Will do! Post yours when you get them on.

Coming along really nice what kind of work did you have to do to get those off sets to work I only see people run at max +30 on front or back

I was wondering the same thing as asiandavid...the offset for the front seems way out there at +9.
Even +26 on the rear seems a little on the extreme side.
I wonder if it has something to do with the rim design.
Inquiring minds want to know...my OCD is spiraling out of control!!

It has to be something about how they measure the offset on a 3 piece rim.
The stock rim is 18X8 with a +40 offset, so a 19X9 should be a +30 at the max to fit without any chance of rubbing or the need for fender mods, even if the car is lowered...or aired out in you case.
Depending on rim design and tire size, you could go a little smaller than +30, but it would be marginal.
It still doesn't explain how +9 would ever fit. Realistically with a +9 offset, you should be able to sit on the tire when it's installed on the front...that's how much it would stick out.
I noticed there were a few others that had deep dish rims on, and the offset numbers they were quoting also didn't make sense, but those looked like 2/3 piece rims also...so it has to be the way it's measured of those type of rims.

A little fenda rollin going on 
From that view that looks like +9. If that cambers all the way in when aired out, that's crazy. Gonna look good when you're done.

Got them on awhile ago. Been too busy and/or lazy to post pics, but I like the result!
Will try to post more pics later. Must say it's kind of a hassle uploading photos though. Let me know what you guys think!
