stop thinking =)
both are cool wheels but i think with the face designs they look better where they are. i think the flat faced wheels dont look so great on the SC but actually fit the IS because of the sharper edges.

Next time you get the urge to think about doing that again...don't

The wheels look better on the SC more than anything else!

Brian, I don’t remember if the wheels on your SC are staggered or not… I’m sure you know this already, but you can’t go as wide on the back of the IS as you can on the SC.

The IS wheels look good on the face, I love 5 spoke wheels

They are however, tooooo skinny for the SC. They won't look right.

the Evo's on the other hand, would look great on the IS....so buy another set

That solves the first question......... I guess the IS300 stock wheels are so close to these it will do for an idea. I need to find a black SC on IS wheels now

Wait if you have both cars, and both sets of wheels why don't you just go and swap them out?
