08-09 wheels or 2012-2013 wheels
So wanted to get some opinions. I've always like the 09 wheels but the new ones are growing on me. I might trade my 09 for a 12 and i might want to keep the 09 wheels for the 12. I know the 12 wheels are wider but makes no difference because both tire sizes are the same. I guess with a 9.5 u can put a 285 on it. Thoughts?

The newer wheels look really good, but I'm partial with my '08-'09 wheels. The blade design with the first set of IS F wheels is hard to beat as a factory set IMO. I only wish it had been made wider at the time, which is why I'm contemplating getting wheels this year. With the newer ones having a 9.5 width in the rear, one can surely push it to fit 295 tires. It's not optimal, but I have seen it done.

I like the '12 wheels better than the 08-10 blades, and the 08-10 blades much better than that spiderweb looking wheel they came out with for '11.
I am a big fan of aftermarket wheels though, specifically Volks, so that's the route I went with. But I think the 2012+ ISF wheels are some of the best looking factory wheels on any car today.

I agree that that 12's are the best looking, so if you need someone to trade out rims with... *cough* lol
or just switch rims when you trade it in, i don't think they would mind.

I'm with you ISFPOWER! A wider wheel is definitely something that I wish the F had when it was first created. This is why shopping for a good wheel design with the widths and offsets I'd ideally want is so difficult. But all wheel designs look quite unique on the F.
