Nice! What are the specs on them? Any rolling/trimming needed?

Thanks I didn't even see that. Do you know if the fenders were rolled with these? I'm really liking the beefy tires.

Check out FIGS Engineering. He has a setup running 305s in the rear with wide rims, correct offsets, and no modifications required. I don't think there's anything wider, nor will rolling get you anything significantly more.

They're 18x10 +40 offset all around. Tires are 285/35/18 Hankook RS3. You'll need to roll the rear fenders and trim the bumper tab with this setup. For the front you might get away without any modification depending on how low you are.

Here are my wheels and tyres (since no one seems to have posted photos of Volks VR G25 wheels).
Front: Volks VR G25 rims 18 x 8.5 offset 35, tyres Michelin Pilot Super Sports 235/40/18.
Rear: Volks VR G25 rims 18 x 9.5 offset 43, tyres Michelin Pilto Super Sports 255/40/18.
I did not intend them to be flush.

Thanks!

The photos were meant to help anyone looking to downsize to this wheel with this particular specification.

There are 5 IS F's here.
1 being the 2008 model; the remainder 4 being the current version.
I'm probably the only one using the F as a daily driver (the other owners have more than 1 car) which probably explains why they are not easy to spot.

No issues with rubbing because I took the conservative approach in not going for a flush look.

No wonder I've never seen an ISF in SG (I'm a Singaporean but I live in Australia now), just lots and lots of IS250/350s with bodykits....how much were they going for in Singapore? Is Lexus Singapore still selling them?
