Nice car btw. Clean pics.

As of now im gonna drop it on springs so my best bet would be 19s im guessing.

Any suggestions for wheels on a white IS?

Nice IS. What are you dropped on?

Im planning on getting 19s anyway with a 19x10 in the rear, do you have any issues with the 10 inch in the back?

It all depends on offset low offset looks real aggressive and flush hella sick but your going to have to fix the fender. I have 19x10.5 43 offset rear running 265/30/19 looks a little stretch but I don't rub at all.

No rubbing is with the 10" wide rim. I'm actually planning on running a larger spacer like 15mm. So right now I got a +43 with a 7mm spacer which = +36 and with a 15mm it will be a + 28 offset. So if you ask me you can in a 10" with a + 30 and run maybe a 265/30/20 with no problems what so ever. I will take some pics after I do this so you get an idea of how it will look. Hope that helps.

YeP they were chrome but got tired of them so got the powdercoated really cheap to. Trying to play around with the fronts as well cause I want to run a little more aggressive don't have the cash for new wheels but have the spacers though so atleast I can do something with it.
