Kinda blurry pics, but from what I can see it looks pretty good... where did you get them from that you don't know any of the specs on them?

I like the wheels, I have a drivers side fender and a front bumper, but the front bumper isn't much count it needs some work to fix it, but is fixable. There is nothing wrong with the drivers side fender though, has a few light scratches. Is your IS auto or manual?

I think the wheels looks great, I really like the red with bronze look. As far as camber kits, they have one for the IS300 on tirerack.com
