19" Niche Wheels on 2014 IS 350 F Sport
Also, Michelin Pilot Super Sports, blacked out grille and side window surrounds. Combined new wheel/tire weight is 30# less than original 18s. Aside from the appearance, better handling, turn-in and braking.

Did if effect your speedo, or odometer ?
Take it you cant use the "F sport setting" that stiffens the suspension ?
Has it affected your warranty at all ?

Niche Circuit's
Niche will match the wheels to the vehicle completely - they used 19 x 8.5 front - 19 x 9.5 rear with a 5 x 114.3 bolt pattern. Not sure about the offset. Tires are 235/35/19 Front - 265/30/19 Rear. No issues with turning radius, speedo or odo.

So I couldn't get the Niche I wanted so went with Momo Revenge 19X8.5 +40 225/35/19 and 19X9.5 +40 265/30/19 Nitto 555 oh H-tech springs. No rubbing with 2 adults and 2 kids! F Sport works just as it did and ride is pretty close to stock but with improved handling.

Great pictures! Bruteshot2 has CV5 on his car and that also look good. I'm in search for my summer wheels and I having hard time deciding. I was originally thinking of going with below LFA 19" but now I'm thinking I would like to get something different from factory wheels which I'm using for winter.

I have Obsidian/Rioja Red F-Sport and was thinking machine/hyper-silver/chrome finish would give more contrast but I can't find any that I'm liking on 3IS. What do you guys think of these? Nothing really stands out for me. I wish I could see these on the my car to decide.

I doubt it, read this post about my tire/wheel fitment.

Here is another one about the Super Downs. I know that you've already seen this post, but it might help someone else down the road:

And then check this out. http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Wheel...ulator#Results
If you plug in the numbers to the wheel offset calculator, you will see that your setup would have 18mm less clearance to the inside and would poke out 8mm more to the outside. I didn't measure the inside clearance to the fender well or to the knuckle on my setup, but I doubt there is 18mm of clearance. With Super Down's and my tire/wheel fitment, I'm rubbing the fender liner on the outer edge of the tire. You might be able to clear on the outside if you stretch a tire, but you may never know until you try.

Your car look likes its dropped on super downs springs instead of down springs. Is it because it settled alot or its the super down?
