Default Can you guys look at these wheels and tell me if they're the right sizes for the IS F

Just went to the dealership to look at the 2009 w/26k miles that I was telling you guys about in my other thread, and was curious as to what you guys thought of the wheels that were on the car below:

They are Gram Lights and are fitted with 245/35 19 front & 275/30 19 on the rear?

I don't know the size of the wheels or the offset, but it looks like the rear wheel sticks out further than the front and wonder if the offset is in the 20+ range??

Hopefully the pics show up below as I haven't yet posted any pics yet on this forum.

Car max doesnt haggle on prices. Pricing does seem a couple of thousand higher for a 09, at least its low miles.

That's right they don't haggle, oh well maybe the price will come down in the near future if it's still there, it's been sitting on their lot for 38 days already???

I was looking at your sig and noticed that you had Volk Te37 wheels, by chance do you have any pics of them on your car? Are they forged or cast?

I found out the model of the Rays Engineering wheels on this car, they are the gram lights 57fxx and are cast and not forged like I originally thought?

Also how do you like your KWv3 coilovers compared to the stock suspension set-up?

Looks good to me. Rays are great even if they are not forged.

Great wheels, I don't think they are +20 offset in the rear though, I would say maybe 35-40. My +45 have a very slight poke past the 1/4 panel. I would estimate the fronts at 25-28? I am just guessing based on the way my wheels fit. lol

That's what I've been reading about them even though they are not forged they are still good wheels that are flow formed and weigh I think about 24lb rear and 21 for the front I think?

Does anybody know how much the stock wheels weigh that come on the car?

Thanks for the feedback on that!

OEM wheels are 23 lbs in the front and 27 lbs in the rears. Not super heavy, especially considering the cast and multi-piece wheels available, but the Gram Lights are still a quality build and relatively light.

Wow ok so these are still a little bit lighter than the BBS stock wheels, that's a plus!
