ceecee, drop it now. I like that you did something different, looks great.

Gawd, if I see another set of Work Varianza wheels, I'm going to lose it.

Here's my contribution...

Lexus IS model: 2008 IS350 Starfire Pearl
Wheel Make & Model: FIVE:AD S5:F (gunmetal)
Wheel Size (diameter and width): 19x8.5 (f), 19x9.5 (r)
Wheel Offset Front: 45
Wheel Offset Rear: 35
Compatible with tire pressure sensors? Yes, but not installed

Tire Make and Model: Yokohama Advan Sport
Tire Size Front: 235/35/19
Tire Size Rear: 265/30/19

Suspension mods: Tein S-Tech
Amount of drop: 1.6 (f), 1.2 (r)

The wheels were just released by Five Axis. No rubbing, but very close (2 mm clearance) in rear. One finger gap all around. Very flush in rear. Might try a more aggressive offset in front. I'll post pics if I try it. Car rides very nice. Tires are very quiet and comfortable. Might need to move on to coilovers in the near future...want it dropped a little more.

Works well with the car. Nice. Offset looks good in the front.
