This is my 2006 IS250 AWD with 20% tint, F-Sport springs and F-Sport 19's. I didnt want to get the 18's so I ordered 4 front wheels since the 19's are made for the RWD models. I have no rubbing issues!

Tires: Yokohama S-Drive 225/35/19 front & rear...

Dealer said it wasn't possible...

Wow! I can't see how she could reach the pedals?

Those rims look amazing!!! I just picked up a 2008 AWD and have been looking for rims too. I really want the 19's but have heard about the rubbing problem, and of course I heard the same thing about the IS-F 19' wheels (which I like the best!), that they will rub and not recommended for the AWD so we should get the 18's! There is a guy down my street that has lowered and put 19" 5AD wheels on his and they do rub but he has 245/35/19 and I imagine that is why because they are much wider.

You also said you put springs on your car, which I think you need to remove that wheel well gap a bit. What springs did you use, how much did it lower the front and back, and how do you find the ride now compared to when it was stock?

Can you also tell me where you ordered them and how much they were?

Thaks-a-lot. Your car looks great!

That's one fine looking piece of iron you have there
