Default Anyone heard of Ambits wheels?

Looking through my facebook a guy posted a sexy is250 with ambits website wheels. They have a blackfriday deal going on and its only $650! Its a 19x9.5 not sure if it will fit my AWD or look weird since im not lowered? Anyone have a picture of any ambits wheel so I can see which one look good?

I've never heard of Ambits wheels? Are they designed for racing primarily? Don't know about the wheels but those rims are tight!

Seen these as well on Facebook, really good price and I love the look. Do our cars suffer performance loss when going 19inch vs 18 inch rims? Also slightly lowered?

TJ Hunt from YouTube is sponsored by Ambit. His friend Kevin (forum: Ktran1039) is also running some Ambits

You should be fine as long as the aftermarket wheels' diameter is within 3% relative to OEM wheel. Here's a useful tool http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Tire-Size-Calculator
