So I got some new wheels for my IS and decided to throw my old wheels on my girlfriends RC. Almost the same size dimensions as far as tire goes except the offset. The rears are 30 and the front a 35 versus the stock 35 rear and 40 up front. Why the heck does it look like a monster truck? I know it NEEDS to be lowered, but it's her car, not mine so I don't think that's gonna happen. I'm considering swapping the stock tires with the Hankooks I have on them. Maybe it'll help fill that wheel gap a little better. Hmm....

I love the look of those wheels and was waiting to finally see them on an RC. The reason why the car looks lifted is because the tires are a lot shorter on an IS versus an RC. Taller tires or even the stock RC tires will fix the fender gap issue. Ultimately springs would help the gap much more but that's all personal preference.

Believe you me, if I could lower it I would but gotta keep momma happy. But I can still play around it with her car like the little things. May try to swap the tires with the stocks and sell the Hankooks on there.
Thanks man, I'm running 19x10 +25 in the rear and 19x9 +25 in the front on the stock tires. Lowered on rsr down springs
I dig it. Close to my offsets on my LC818s. I think I'm going to have to swap the tires too. My Hankooks look way too small. But your drop is nice and subtle. I don't think my girlfriend will go for the drop though... any issues with splash up on the sides of your car from the offset of your wheels sticking out further than stock?

Yea the car gets super dirty from the wheels. I wanna have a custom carbon side diffuser made with rear splats the protect it. Something like the Greddy wide body side diffuser
