    Pics are a little over-processed and have a bit too much cyan/blue to them. Excellent car though!

    another occasion where i think these vossens are overplayed..IMHO a better set of wheels could have gone w/ this car. few times where i like vossens on certain cars, this isnt one, no hate IJS

    definitely like the other subtle and unsubtle (brembo) mods you have on here though

    Never noticed how the fender and the side skirt flow together. Looks good. I like the corporate jet too.

    I love the car and pics. Yes, a lot of cars have Vossen, but it still looks good here IMO. I do agree that the rear tires could use a little more sidewall though.

    I personally think the wheel style is great. Just the color and size are wrong for me. And again, like others have said, the tire sidewall is too small. I'm not a fan of this car's styling, but overall, it does look good.
    FOR MORE INFO, CLICK THE PIC!!!

    Nice car, but would look better with different wheels.

    the only thing if any that i would change would be do down an inch on the wheels, kinda looks like the wheels want to "pop" out, other than that i think you set!

    I love these cars. A friend of mine has a silver '09 with less than 30k miles on it. These sound sooo good with an HKS system on it.

    Nice car ! If it were mine, I would have went with a smaller wheel for a little more side wall.

    The car is absolutely gorgeous, but I agree that there is probably a set of wheels out there that would fit the car much better Not to take away from how awesome the car is

    thanks for the compliments, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, if these wheels aren't for you I understand, however I've seen a lot of wheels on the is-f and these are some of my favorites, I may be looking into some BBS RS for the next set when I get sick of these but for now I will stick with these

    keep what you have, BBS RS is played the hell out. Vossens are popular, but not near as easy to see as BBS RS

    Please no RSs. This is a performance car; not a stance queen. Ive driven one plenty of times and know what they are capable of.
