Default HELP me to decide!!!

hey guys,

i'm planning to pick up a set of used Work Varianza T1S wheels and tires but not sure if the price/fitment is right. i have an is350 and here're the details of the wheels and tires.

front: 19x8 offset 35 / tires: 235/35/19 RE050 with about 75% tread left
rear: 19x10 offset 55 / tires: 245/35/19 Nitto NT555 about 90% tread left

curb harsh on each wheel but nothing major.

Asking: $1700

pls help me to decide if i should go for it or no.

tks,
eric

still no even for 1500. they'll fit with no problems depending on the disc up front. offsets are really weak though
