i think only hyper silver will fit the IS, the sapphire black only have PCD 120 while our IS is 114.
While on the rubbing issue, i do have some rubbing but i can live with it. I also experience that tire choice is also a consideration. I change my pirrelis' when i hit a pothole causing a sidewall bubble in front right tire, i decided to change my pirrelis' with YOKOHAMA ADVAN SPORT. with the YOKOS i experience very very little rubbing compared to perrelis'.
To all the AME Tracer FS01 owners, please post (a lot of) pictures of your setup! I really like these rims, and thinking about getting a set, but I want to get a better idea of what they look like on the car. Seems to me, only a few people have them in these forums. Please include:
Lexus IS model:
Wheel Size (diameter and width):
Wheel Offset Front:
Wheel Offset Rear:
Tire Make and Model:
Tire Size Front:
Tire Size Rear:
Suspension mods:
Amount of drop:
Description of wheel gap, fender flushness, rubbing, aesthetics, compatibility with tire pressure sensors, and other comments and problems if any (clear pictures to support description would help greatly).
(sorry, jacked that from a main page sticky)
I have an IS250 awd in Black Sapphire Pearl, and I'm torn between the hyper silver and the black (maybe somebody can help me do a photoshop of each one??). Do you guys think that the black ones would be too matchy for my car? Also, I believe that these rims are TPMS compatible, but please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks, please post!
One more thing, if you could post (or PM me) how much you paid for the set (just the wheels) and where I can get them. Much appreciated!

I would like to see people's cars too. I flipped through the aftermarket wheels sticky and the dedicated AME Tracer thread a while back and I think I only saw two pictures! Those threads were pages long!!!

You just have to go threw the many pages on the wheel thread. I believe we have 3 or better members that have these rims. I am pretty sure that the offset is going to be the same on these also.
what do you guys think if i put on the black fs01's on my car being that it's black sapphire pearl? would it be too matchy? and would it look weird if i put 18's on without a drop on the awd?
