Hey All

Details not too sure, when i buy stuff if it fits and works well i don't really pay attention to the details but to fill your curiosity i will ask my mate what brand they are, I know wen he bought them he could not find them anywhere in NSW so he plaed an order with a japanese compay.

I am keen as mustard to drop it maybe one inch, It is a salary sacrafic car so i am trying how to work it out so i can claim the price of suspension on the lease, I went to pedders a while back and they said no one is making springs or shocks for a 09 IS250 yet so i should wait out for a while.

Has anyone done any engine mods or fitted any performance chips, I am very keen to fit the engine out and get some more power to the wheels ?

Ya ride looks really tight! Its a shame that you are going to take it back to the stock ride setup!!

I love the Works!!! The fitment looks incredible!! I unfortunately still have my heart set on the Work Varianza TS1's. Soon I hope!!! But I have to say, the drop looks awesome. How much drop did you get with the H&R's??? I haven't read up on anyone that has put them on the IS?? Ride quality??

Again, looks awesome!!! Whats next???

Came back with a quote from JAX for a set of OZ Racing SuperTurismo 18' rims, $620 each, look very nice on my silver IS

I have a friend who put a set of Superturismo's on his charcoal IS250. Looked fantastic - Seriously HOT! He got a pretty good deal from www.tirerack.com, and even combined with the shipping cost from the US and a set of rubber, I think he still got it cheaper than what you have been quoted.

But definitely a thumbs up on that wheel choice! :D

Thanks mate, but I couldn't find Superturismo on Rire Rack, sold out maybe? I'll keep my eyes on that site for a better deal :D

It doesn't seem to come up on a search when you input IS250, but I'd just find the correct offset and PCD and order them manually than rely on their automated system which doesn't realise that certain sets will still fit the IS.

Ha!

Yes thanks Q!! I have only been asking for the last month lol!! Like I said earlier, It does seem that my ride does follow in your cars footsteps!! Now that Im riding on Eibachs, its awesome to see how the oems look....................and I have to say, and I think alot of us would agree, looks brilliant!! Especially for those of us that do want to keep with an over all "luxurious / sporty / Oem" vibe!!

Again, awesome look, thanks for posting up brother!!!

Well, I have finally got off my lazy ass and upgraded my rims. :)

I guess it's a matter of personal choice, but I absolutely love dish. Gotta have it! I think these ones suit the car well.

Rims are Koya Inox R1. 19", staggered 8.5" wide at the front, 9.5" wide at the rear. Wears 265 rubber in the rear, and 235 in the front.

Next step would be to get the car lowered, looks a bit ridiculous the way it is now, but one step at a time haha. Will get around to that in the next couple of weeks. First gotta sort out a small issue, the front rims rub a litle bit when turning...

Here are some pics, just after I had them installed. Nothing fancy, will do nice pics once she's lowered though hehe.

These are my mates 20inch Work virianza t1s 20x9 +10 and 20x10 +18 with 225 fronts and 255 rears. will def have to change to a 215 front and maybe a 235 rear, full hetic stretch B)

they are 30 profile, to fit these bad boys id need more camber and 25 profile tyres.

My jic's get fitted and its getting slammed in 3 weeks so ill be trying em on again :)

These are a bit of oldschool jdm vip rims. SSR veinna's 18x9 and 18x10 +24. once shes dropped may slip on a 3-5mm spacer for a more baller look :)
