Congrats and no wheels won't fit unless it's a hella flush theme. 19x11 +40 or higher will be okay with like 295 tires. Higher offsets than 40 will allow you to fit 305

the ISF is wider but the track is also wider. 19x11 +-0 would poke out about 60 MM from the outside edge of the fender on the rear. im running a 19x10 +43 and it sticks about 7mm from the fender.

Rear stock wheel 19x9 +55
New rear wheel 19x11 +0, it means a 55mm stick-out + ( 2"/2 = 25mm ) = 80mm.
So the new wheels is 80mm sticked out compared to the stock ones. What do you think?

Welcome!

I guess a more accurate thread title would be 'most of an IS-F'!

All kidding aside, damage doesn't look too bad. Once you strip off all the broken bits, it'll look a lot better.

Looks like at least one mod remains (rain guards on the windows).

What year and mileage does it have?

What are your plans for it?

Will be a challenge no doubt, but glad to see you're saving one of these epic cars dude.

Cheers.
