19"!!! 18's are nice, but if your gonna be spending the money, it would be worth getting the 19's for the look but if your more worried about ride quality then 18's, but definatley 19's for the SEXINESS and those remind be heaps of the Volk CE28N's i might get these for my car (not the IS250) or im thinking knock off TE37's (ROTA maybe?)

very interesting 334mm i didn;t know the filter would get blocked so quickly but I don't worry too much as basically every survey says that the IS250 is one of the most reliable cars (well basically any lexus) hahaha and our IS250 hasn't given us any problems with just regular Lexus services, neither has our old RX330 or LS430 my dad's old 330ci was another story tho, HAHAHA

im pretty sure there was a recall for the brake pads on IS250's because some had the squealing and the excessive brake dust i remember when i first got mine, and i was looking it up on clublexus i told them the next service and they changed to the new pads and it stopped squealing but still got tonnes to brake dust i can wash the car, drive to the shops and the front rims are already covered in brake dust (i dont brake hard or ride the brakes)

a few members have BCR Coil's which are great, chris' car is real fun to drive esp with the coils and 350 brakes but they are kinda out of my budget, im only a student the reason thinking of going with coilovers over springs, even tho springs are alot cheaper, i want to be able to adjust the height but i might still go with springs, so that i can have some money left over for an exhaust and rear spoiler

sounds like its the battery does it make a clicking noise, but it wont run over? it happened to me a few months ago outside school just be aware that after u change the battery, stuff like ur seat memory and side mirror memory are wiped so u jst have to set them again i would recommend replacing the battery, i charged mine nd it worked for a few hours and it went flat again hope this helps

um, thats seems REALLY fast i drive pretty hard all the time and i have the stock 18's and even my tyres last 30k kms have u checked the tyres urself? dealer may be trying to just get u to change em but if you really do need to change tyres, get some 18's or 19's!!! 15,000kms seems really short, unless the guy before you did burnouts 24/7

haha changed plans i got a S65 AMG instead with 2 of my mates the sound it made when it left the drop off area, OMFG, V12 powaar the formal was alright (year 11 one was better) but the clubbing that happened after was MUCH MUCH better also, even if we were 18, we werent allowed to drink during the formal (or before, they breath tested us :( and there was no smoking area! ahaha, nd 1/2 my year smokes, LOL)
