Default 2012 IS FSport - Nebula Pearl - Vossen 19" CV1's, matte black, toyo proxe

I picked up my new Lexus IS Fport the other day. They gave me a list of about 50 wheel and tire packages that I cou ld pick from and I had no idea what to go with until I found this website and these threads. There is a lot of great info on here and it really helped in making my decisions. So I thought I would post a couple of pictures of the car with the Vossen CV1's, matte black, silver lip, toyo proxe tires. Thanks for all of the info.

Nice! That looks clean. Almost OEM... Like modified ISF stocks.

Thanks for all positive comments. I think for now I am going to tint the windows, put the f-fport shift **** on and than leave it alone for a little while. At some point I would like to upgrade the exhaust. Its a company car, a bonus for working my *** off so I dont want to modify it to much because I have to turn it in 2 years.

honestly I ordered the matte graphite CV1's but the dealership said they were on backorder for 2 months so they ordered the matte black with silver lip. Not sure why they told me that because I called Vossen afterwards and they told me they were in stock. either way I probably would have been happy with any of the colors.
