Default PICS...IS350 on 20x8.5 and 20x10 rims !

Whoohoo

I just had these put on today. They look real nice. I start having good compliments on the wheels already . They are Zenetti Five 20x8.5 with +40 offset front and 20x10 with +43 offset rear. Tires are Nitto 555 235/35/20F and 275/30/20R. Be careful when you guys buy wheel for the IS350 because you will need a lot clearance for the front break. Not all of them will fit. Don't order the wheels unless you know they will fit or else you have to end up paying restocking fees for the rims. Just go to the wheel shop and tell them just to put the rims only on the front 1st before mouting the tires on.
I will get a drop once the springs come out. Can't wait.



Front wheel pic:




Rear wheel. Notice that there're not a lot of room between the tire and fender. Nice....




A straight side pic to show you guys that the wheel and tires are flush with the fender. That took me a lot of research in here. Thanks for all the help in here



Rear pic. Notice the fat tire on the bottom?

That looks a lot better than the car with the Volks. Yours looks well purportioned. What do the wheels weigh?

They're 35lbs front and 38lbs rear. Pretty heavy if u ask me. But i guess it's okie for me cuz i want the look. i don't race my car so losing a lil power don't bother me.

Looking good! 35's looks better than 30's on front because of big gaps on the fender.

I notice that i have a lil rub inside the front wheelwell when i make a hard turn. I was aware of that problem thou. I wanted +38 offset but they only have +40 on that rims. Plus i rather have a lil rub on the inside than having rub on the outside of the fender and wheels sticking out. These rims i plan to have it for a year or two just to test with the car being drop soon. Later i'll get a nice perfect one for this car.

WOW... The IS looks so much more muscular now. Excellent wheel and tire choice! Definitely post more pics when you have it dropped.
