Default Wheel Fits - WORK VSXX

So i found a set of wheels...sexy ones just like I been lookin for - BUT, will they sit pretty?

Work Vs-XX
F 19x8.5+40
R 19x9.5+42

Wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport ***
235/35/19
275/30/19

Id like to sit fairly flush, but im not a freak on it...so long as it all looks better than my stock 18" stgrd setup, were cool!

Any thoughts would be super appreciated...Ive been shoppin for a minute! and these are the ones I been hopin to find.

OH YEAH - So. they look to be in bout near perfect shape. Guy wants $2k - decent price, no?

Thanks guys!

If they really are in near perfect shape, and there's some meat left on those tires, that's a pretty good price.

The offsets are pretty weak though, but at least you wont need fender mods.

VSXX wheels will definitely look better than your OEMs. The offsets are conservative so you won't need to be concerned about any rubbing issues. To be flush, you could run 20mm spacers all around. But, I wouldn't recommend it if it's your daily driver. The price is very attractive too. What color are the wheels and your car?

Will they sit more flush than my stocks?

My IS is anthracite grey - gunmetal, not sure what lexus calls it...

No tires at $2k - Imma go take a look at em today or tomorrow I think. We'll see how nice they are.

I had a set of 18x8.5 +38, 18x9.5 +38--so pretty close to what you're looking at.

It is definitely closer to flush than stock, but since they are 19's you will need a drop and then the offsets will be even more disappointing.

For $2K, I wouldn't buy them for the 2IS. I'd probably pass at any price to be honest.
