Is this the glacier frost mica color? Looks like it...I love the look of that color with all black wheels! I'm looking for all black wheels for mine :-) How much of a drop did you do?

To be honest I never really measured the drop, i just kept playing with it till it was just tucking slightly

The INGS kit will be at least test fitted maybe thursday, I had to take one of the rear wheels off due to a slow leak, bonus that i'm a mechanic i guess lol

Edit: Checked the site and they do make +30! Perfect sizing for ISx50 owners!

yep +30 it fits perfect just needs a bit of heatgun action on the front wheel liner

More pics soon the ings kit is on, the Amber in the tail lights are gone (Red vinyl) headlights are tinted, and the wheels may be going for powder coating

le sigh, if only dark wheels weren't so hard to see on white cars. Looks good though! She's lucky to have you "sponsor" her mods

should also note we took it to the track for some open lapping. No we didnt do it with these wheels lol we put the stockers back on i quickly found out 250 brakes are far too small lol

and as far as wheel fitment goes, we have had to roll the rear fenders the very edge of the wheel hits the inner lip of the rear fender... and the front i have had to cut the tabs and pull the liners out

upside i could run a 265 in the rear even maybe a 275 with my new found space lol

Love how the rims look! Are you using spacers of any kind? Mind sending specs on the rims, thanks!
