Default Lexus Is3 with RC350 fsport oem wheels?

Has anyone seen this setup? There's a guy local to me selling the set of four for $500 and to me, that's a hell of a steal.

Just not too sure how it would look nor am I any good at photoshop.

I think the fitment was 19x8 and 19x9. A very stupid question but if I were to rotate my tires (with acceptable clearance tire sizes of course since I know 9 wides will fit both front and back), am I able to rotate the tires to put 8 wide rears and 9 wide fronts and just rotate them every 3000 miles or so?

Quick 5 min shop.



EDIT: If you are lowered...imagine it.



Under Max acceleration:



Moderate breaking:

Phamkq, pretty simple! Just select the rims, resize, put them over the old rims, spin them so that it doesnt look copy paste, and erase off the outside. To lower the car, select the top half of the car only (minus the wheels) and hit the down arrow a few times to lower it. Spin it if you want to accelerate or decellerate.

Looks superb. Also looks best stock height. Not slammed. Slammed makes it look like a cheap fast and furious car. (I know it was just for fun)

Ive been thinking about getting a set. $500 w. tires. damn.

I was told the offset of these were like 60, and was even told that no rubbing nor any issue being that close to the brakes since its 1/4" away

There's an actual pic of these rims on a 3IS, but I can't seem to find it now, haha.

I think it's a Silver Lining Metallic IS with these wheels and no drop.

OP i did this research awhile back and found the above thread from another user. You might find it helpful. I also bought a set of rims but i haven't installed them yet on my silver lining. You are getting a great deal for wheels and tires.
