I was looking into these wheels, but not sure how they look on our IS's? Can you take more pics from a different views? Are you in Columbus? If so, I would love to check them out in person

Not at this height. The front would be your issue. Also depends on the tire manufacturer. The fenders liners are hacked up, the fender tabs relocated, and the bumper mounts cut and bent. At full lock the fender just about rests on the tire. I also rub up front in dips. The rear is golden. Rub free, but virtually no clearance there either.

Starting to crave bags..

Thanks for the response! Those are modifications/problems I do not want to deal with.

What about air cups? The problem with bags is if there is a leak you will be stuck wherever that happens.

Default Valve Stem help

How's it going guys? Need some help......
I've had my VS-XXs for about 4 years now, and just the other day I realized I needed to add air in one of my tires. To my dismay (Im normally not this stupid), I find out that the valve stem is located in the mid hub portion of the wheel, and I need the extended valve stem or the multi-piece valve stem. For now, it will be a struggle for me to add air into my tires due to this configuration and will need to figure out how to do this.
I have found the multi-piece valve stems on the Work site, so I'll be purchasing these. My question is... is there any special way to install them, like disassembling the wheel? Is this just a simple quick-disconnect attachment? Since the multi-piece is L-shaped, I dont know how you would put these on unless its a quick-disconnect that won't require screwing the piece in.
Any feedback will be appreciated.....
