Finally, ...the SSR VF1's are on!
After almost a 5 month wait (I ordered these at SEMA), they arrived last Friday just in time for a local Houston car show.
SSR VF1 (SBC finish)
19x8.5 +37 f / 19x10 +49 r (w/ 5mm spacer)
Dunlop Sport Maxx
235/35/19 f / 275/30/19 r
NOT TPMS compatible, ...will be doing the pipe bomob trick or just put them in the spare soon.
Anyway, sorry for the poor quality, but i'm no pro at pics.

It was a hard choice to get new wheels, but I wanted something different. After rolling on the ME's for two years, it seems like everyone had them or wanted them. ...not a bad thing, I guess. After all, the Volks looked as if they were made for the IS. But again, I was bored and wanted something no one else had, something different, ..and I wanted to changet he whole look of my car. I feel as if that has now been accomplished.
The SSR VF1 is the newest of thier 3 piece line. They debuted at SEMA and when I saw them, I had to have them. These wheels are from the first shipment into the states, and hopefully do not become a commonplace on the IS.
