If the Weds are BBM get the TEs..so I can buy the Weds haha.
In all seriousness, TEs are one of the best rims ever but they need the right offset and width for them to pop. So if you get TEs make sure you get a more aggressive setup.

The wife's Scion tC runs 245s on all four corners. Putting those on an F would be like putting on ice skates.

I'd stick with the weds, I don't think the TE's are that much of an upgrade. Not sure what your specs are but I have them in a square set up and they fit perfectly and don't think they can be beat by the volks aesthetically unless you run some aggressive offsets and nail it.

It depends on sizing and offsets, as others have stated. The TE37s tend to have slightly more aggressive offsets than what the IS F calls for, but without a doubt it is one of the finest wheels there are in the market. A +22 offset is pretty difficult to fit in the rear without camber and/or running skinny tires. For the fronts, it might be doable, as I've seen low 20s offsets work on our cars. From my perspective, it's just too common a wheel now, but still great nonetheless. It comes down to your intentions with the car. I've seen a few IS Fs as show cars, and owners are completely fine with aggressive offsets and skinnier tires, while from a performance standpoint, I'd try to find a set that doesn't have such a low offset and can fit the adequate rubber needed to put power to the pavement.
Best of luck!

All dependson how wide is it. You didn't read my post? +22 10.5 won't without skinny 245 tires. +22 9.5 will work for front and rear with decent tread on the ground. Best combo would be 9.5 +22 and 10.5 +35 or 9.5/10.5 +35. 10.5 +43 to +45 is super rare, that will allow you to fit 285-295 tires

I agree...and "Pqbrown" car has a mean stance...
