Here's my interpretation of a great ISF wheel/tire combo for good weather street and track.

A little lower on BC coilovers with Swift springs 16k/12k, square setup with 275/35R18 Bridgestone Potenza RE-71R tires on Enkei PF01 18x9.5 +45 wheels. Fronts do not rub at all. Rears required a mild roll since the RE-71Rs are ridiculously wide and a +45 offset is not ideal for a wide tire on the rear.

You, Sir, are my hero

Car to share the offsets for the Forgestars and any work to make them fit? I'm going to look at an ISF this week and wondering if the set I have for my 2GS will fit before I start parting my car out.

Finally got my TWS T66-F's on. Not the best pic. Now i just have to figure out how to get Lexus centre caps that will fit, and need a slight drop with some Swift springs.

I can't recall the offsets but it took a fair bit of work to get them to fit right.

TWS Actually manufactures the TRD ISF wheels, including the magnesium forged. These are also the wheels you will see on most of the publicity shots of the ISF CCS-R.

TSW, well, they have really nice full page ads in car mags.

Looks good.. RR Racing does some custom center caps that may work for you.

Super expensive if you buy from a North American distributor. If you go through a Japanese distributor (they're out there if you look), almost half the price.
