They are lighter than the IS350 wheels? Not bad weights for 20"

Congrats! I'm currently riding on Vossen VPS 311, 20x9.5 and 20x11. I weighted the stock rear vs the VPS 20x11 with tires on and the VPS only weighs 1 lbs less for being a inch bigger and wider!

@ IS350S, do you have pics of your car and the offsets of your wheels? Any fender mods to fit the 11's in the rear? Thanks in advance bro!

Yes, curious about fender gap. I'm waiting on a set of 20x11's for the rear and went with 20x9 for the front. Post a pic up if you don't mind when you get the wheels on the car.

The fender gap will be the same since the diameter of the new wheel/tire combo is the same as OEM. Since the wheels protrude out further than stock, the gap may visually look smaller. I will post pics Sunday

Post lots! I can't wait to see those wheels on your car. Are you lowered at all?

Will do. Not going to lower it until the right parts are released.
