Default Zone Wheels Installed

The Zone 8 wheels are the same offset and width as the stock wheels. I went with Advan tires which are quieter and have better performance (as per TireRack) than the Potenzas.

The front wheel and tire combo weighed 50.4 lbs, the rear 54.0.

I put the stock wheels on my wife's IS250.

I talked Bob Hale from Zone before getting the wheels. He was amazing to deal with; extremely knowledgeable and informative. What customer service!!!!

Doesnt look to bad, but i personally prefer darker colored rims on such a vibrant exterior color


Are they 18s? or 19s? They look smaller then 20's
Good looking rims, regardless

Rominl, thanks. I decided to leave the Engineering alone as I was not sure I wanted to mess with the stock specs.

Thanks. It does not fit the 350, but the 250 has smaller calipers.

Nice, i personally dont like the light shade brushed aluminum, but that is a style that many people love.

I'll be getting new rims on my car soon..theyll be a gorgeous surprise

I like the rims. 19 x 10 would look nice on the rear!!

How does it drive compared to the OEM rims/tires??

The ride is exactly the same as the specs are exactly the same. The tires are quieter.
