Back in the game with a IS250

What's up fam! I haven't been a very active member here but I have been around for a while.

Early this year the I lost my Y33 to a rear end accident and was stuck driving my POS civic for a while. Eventually I was able to save up a few pennies and purchased a 2010 Lexus IS250. So far I'm loving it! The IS is a little on the sporty side but still luxurious, just my cup of tea. Anyway, on to some pics.

I still have the Weds chillin in my garage collecting dust lol I'd like to slap them on my IS but I'm not sure if I'll be able to tuck them without having to run some serious negative camber. The offsets are pretty aggressive, maybe too aggressive for a DD... This build might not be very fast but I plan to do things the rights way. Let me know what you guys think. You IS vets, let me know if you think I'll be able to tuck 19x9-12/19x10.5-15 without too much negative camber.

Did some test fitting on my wheels this past weekend. Wayyy too much offset for the kind of stance I want lol The front wheels will fit in the rear with a roll and pull. I'll need to rebuild the rear wheels if I want to keep them. Or I might end up selling/trading them.

Well you have to take into account "Natural camber" when you lower it! So, maybe if you drop it (bags or what ever) with camber arms, a pull, and stretch you can make them work!!! Dowit!
