Default Installed Wedsport SA67R's & MPSS Tires

Hey Guys,

Finally got my new rims fitted today.

I've had to order up some spigot rings for them, but I'm really pleased with how they look.

Rears seem huge compared to the OEM size (running 275/30/19's with zero rubbing issues).

Hope you like them.

















Excuse the dirt!

I was running out of daylight! Lol.

My favorite aftermarket wheels for the IS-F. The blue accent even goes well with the "F" theme.

Very good choice!

Nice! I'd suggest repainting your calipers, the blue clashes with the orange.

Thanks guys.

Specs are 19 x 9 ET 35 with MPSS 245/35/19 up front, and 19 x 10 ET 42 with 275/30/19 at the rear.

May do the calipers blue with white Brembo decals? The orange actually contrasts nicely in person though.

Looks really nice. How does the steering response feel with the wider tires

repaint the blue on the wheels to match your calipers!

Not a badge, its a side turn signal. All European and Asian markets require these.

What he said!

It's a turn signal.

Too soon to tell mate. I'll report back here once I put a few miles on them though.

The combination of lighter alloys and wider tires should be noticeable though.

That's my hope anyway.
