Default IS350 with Volk Progressiv TE's & H&R springs

I've had it installed for several months now and love it! The looks and feel of the car is so much better. It should have come from Lexus just like this!

Rims: Volk Progressiv TE - Mercury Silver (Front: 19x8.5 +43 Face 1, Rear: 19x9.5 +45 Face 2)
Tires: Goodyear Eagle GSD3 (Front: 235/35/19, Rear: 265/30/19)

Very nicely done! I thought about getting those but the little tabs kind of threw me off. You're probably the only one with those rims on the 2IS here. It looks very clean.

TPMS fits on the new rims like they did on the stock ones, no issues.

Those rims are very stylish, and fit the overall look of our cars very well!! Not to mention super light! Good job!

Those are some amazing wheels. Too bad Rays discontinued them. The only progressive wheel they offer now is the ME.
