Vertex is on its way from Japan as we speak! LOL, I'm trying to make myself different from Calviin some how. Side shot will come later, my front lip is missing so it looks weird. Still gotta adjust my coils more too. Friends rims btw. Still in the market for my own.

20x10 +45, the fronts are really weak so I didn't bother taking pics.

Lol, yeah man you and Calvin look alike and I love how you guys look! I'm planning on doing a Wald spoiler too . Don't worry I have some things planned out that will make me look different . I meant the fronts were weak not the rears.

The Works were just being test fitted, they're off now and I'm slammed on stocks. I'll stay away from the T1S lol, I need to be different.

Default work emotion xd9

I'm thinking of buying a set of Emotion XD9 wheels.

What would be the ideal setup for IS250? It's lowered with coilovers if that matters.

Front 18x9 +30 or +38?
Rears 18x10 +38.

Someone with knowledge please help.

Any of those sizes will work. Just depends on what look you're going for. I'd personally do +30 up front

Default Work Emotion 11R's

Hey all, just joined the Work Owners club. I was a Volk SF-Winnings Owner, but decided to switch up the look a bit, and experiment with somewhat more aggressive fitments than my previous setup. Here are the specs:

Work Emotion 11R Bronze
18x8.5 +30
18x9.5 +20

Tires are stock sizing
Still waiting on wheel stickers and center caps.

Rear fenders are cut, but I still rub on the tab that connects the fender to the bumper. I'm still cutting away at piece to lessen/remove the rubbing.

Overall I'm happy with the look. I may raise the front a bit, or lower the rear, still playing with the heights. I may change the rear to a tire with less width, bt not sure yet.

Let me know what you think. Thanks

The fitment is nice, but the tires are just way too fat

I'm wondering to buy a set of Gnosis Gs5. The new set model. in 20" size.

What would be the ideal setup for IS250? It's lowered with coilovers if that matters.

Someone with knowledge please help.
