Default Mrr HR-4 Wheels

Hi! I'm planning to get MRR HR-4's on my 06 IS350. 19x8 front and 19x9 rear, +35 offsets for both. I plan to lower the car with Eibach Pro kit. What size/brand tires should I get? 235/40 & 265/35 or 225/40 & 255/35? The new IS-F has same size wheels and the tires are 225/40 and 255/35, but I don't know about the offset. Is +35 offset good for this set up for best look? This will be my first mod ever to any car I've ever owned. I'm doing this mod purely for look and I don't want any problems later such as rubbing, etc. I need help. Thanks in advance.

In my sig you'll see what rims/offset/tire size i run, course ive gone for the streched VIP look rather than the PHAT tires that the 'sport' ppl here normally run, dont know if you'd be interested in that style of look. BUT i have no rubbing and IMO i have a perfect look. (only the lip of the rim sticks out and not the tire )

I have no technological/mechanical offering regarding if it will fit or not. I just don't know.

But I like the look.

Love the look of the wheels, but they do look kinda heavy.

Thank you people for the replies.

I've read somewhere that these wheels weigh around 30 lb, which I don't know if it is considered heavy. I have black onyx and thank you for the picture, hapaboy. That gives some idea how they would look. llamaboiz, your set up looks great and I think I will get 225/255 instead of 235/265. By the way, was your Eibach kit IS350 kit or IS250 kit?

I found one member here who has these wheels, but his car is white. I pm'ed him to get some more info on the wheels, but did not get any response. Here is the link of his post.

Yeah, that's pretty heavy....probably going to add about 3-5 pounds on each corner. But, as you said, it's a mod for looks...and I definitely approve the look!

Mine is black as in the picture. Yes, these wheels look similar to MRR HR-4's, but they look way better. Who makes these wheels?
