Default My IS got its new feet today!!

Well the pics are crappy, The car is filthy, and YES I KNOW it desperately needs a set of coilovers, but hey for now I'm happy.. I recently purchased a set of ISF wheels with like new Michelin PS2 tires from Chrisburke. Everything went as planned and I got them today. Keep in mind it was Damn COLD here in PA today and these pics were taken as soon as it came off the jack. A few hours later it certainly has settled down to a nicer ride height then these pics dictate.

Before anyone flames me, I'm certainly not trying to make my car into an
IS-F! I just love the damn wheels and thought they would look nice on my otherwise, run of the mill SGM IS. I like it. I will post some more pics from my real camera after the car is cleaned up and stuff..

IS-F wheels look great but some coils will make it look even better!

nice wheel choice, a bit mono-toned for me, but nice nonetheless...

as a complete side thought, poopoo on lexus for letting the AWD sit so fugly high! i mean WOW, serious 4x4. i own a 250 (along with my 350) and i mean barf... really looking forward to lexus catching up with the competition on having an eye appealing wheel gap, i.e. BMW/Infinity

IS-F wheels look great. BC coils in the summer will be a huge improvement.
