First post!

Just wanna introduce myself and tell you guys this looks like a great forum. My wife just got an 07 V6 LE with hubcaps I logged in here looking for what you guys have done to your cars and I was sold on the IS350 wheels. I then went onto craigslist and got a set for $500. You'll be seeing more from me and I will post pics as soon as I get them on the car.

Welcome to the forum.

You chose a nice set of wheels, that's for sure.

Those wheels look great!

How could the front tires rub? They're so small I doubt that they could run on any car. The front tires also don't look very nice. They're way too small.

Nice car overall though.

fronts are small, might get some taller profile tires but its a tight fit with the wheel's offset/backspacing. Anyone know if the speedo can be corrected by the dealer? Fronts are 4% smaller than stock ones.

It really doesn't make sense to have staggered wheels. Also, it's kinda weird having larger rear tires and wheels on a FWD car.

We didnt go with the staggered wheels for a specific reason, we just wanted other wheels and got a good deal on them. If the wife is happy with them and they wont hurt the car then Im happy too

Drop the car with TRD springs, that will cut the gap and make the wheels look bigger.
