Default Meet Lexie. (My Build)

What's up guys. My name is Jae and i am new to this forum. I've had my IS250 for about 7 months now. I have always wanted to mod my car but was never able to since i put $6000 down on her and personal thingsi had to take care, But i guess better late than never right?

So first thing ive got got done so far are my VOSSEN CV3 Matte Graphite F:20x9 R:20x10.5
Tire size i went with are F: 245/30-2 R:285/30-20

THANKS mike@vossenwheels.com for the quick email reply.

i ordered my wheels and tires yesterday 02/09/2012 and got em today. GREAT TURN AROUND from Vossen.
anyways here are pics from today. I was expecting to get my F-Sport lowering springs before my rims so my car isnt lowered yet. Looks like a Big Foot. lol

Here she is so far. Let me know what you guys think..

More pictures ASAP - I really like those wheels and I have been wanting to see the 20" with the F-Sport springs.

Some members here have had some troubles installing their TPMS. Did you have any?
Anything you did differently that you can share. It will help those that buy after market wheels and are not aware of TPMS fitment.
