those wheels have been on my 'hitlist' for quite a while now....they are gorgeous and IMO the nicest set of wheels for the 2IS at the point. It surprises me greatly that so few on this forum actually run them. only problem i have with them is that they are not exactly cheap (where i live, these wheels are in the same price bracket as the 1-piece forged volk racing wheels) and they are heavy (12kg per wheel in 19 inch). But nothing beats them for looks. NOTHING

I'm sure you could go a 9.5" +35 with 265/30's with no issues.

Looks like mid 30's offset will be what I go with. As far as vendors is D-2 a good company to go with for works or someone else?

I think I may bite the bullet today and place the order. 19x8.5F 36 offset, 19x9.5R 32 offset. Stock suspension. If I add maybe a 1-1.5 inch drop next year do you think this would be ok without rubbing? Machine silver polish Work SC1
