Well, I only have a build thread in my.is so I thought since my new wheel setup is coming in right now, I'd start building it in WFC to share it with you guys.

As of last year this is how my car looked like:

Just picked up a pair of tires from my friend today, looking forward to slap them onto my new wheels once they're back.

Continental ExtremeContact DWS 215/35ZR19

Shots of the rear fitment:



needs to lower a bit more and camber it out. hoping to get that done sometime next week.

And...my ricer side, stickers that I've collected overtime is on my car:

I custom made the Stance one, got one more extra in case i messed up. But now it's just sitting at my house. If anyone wants it just hit me up.

.....one of the few is300s I really like.

Always a fan of the 1st Gen IS, especially the wagon. This re-confirms my like for these cars. In for the wheel updates.

looking good jordan!

[Jordan Mo]

Thanks everyone.
My wheels should be in by Saturday. The inner barrels are being replaced and my bended lips are being fixed at Wheelflip. When I get it back they'll be 19x9 +30, adding a 5mm spacer it'll be +25.

Thanks Chan. <3

I need Hub Centric Rings. Someone tell me if my measurements are correct.
The Lexus IS300 uses 60.1mm, the caliper ruler reads about 70mm. So does that mean I need a 70mm - 60.1mm hubring?

[Jordan Mo]

Just ordered my hubrings the other day for about $9.
OD=70.40mm / ID=60.1mm

[mister hashimoto]

[evilchargerfan]

haha yeah i gave it to you a while back

[JawDropper]

Looks good. Always been a fan of the is300. Should have stayed with the NT03+M....but im bias towards them there my favorite wheel.

[Jordan Mo]

I wanted to step up to 19's. Enkei doesn't make NT03's in 19's unless you custom rebarrel it to step lip?

And....I thought it'd probably be a good time for me to upgrade. 3 piece.

[ZIGGYZ]

Sweet IS. How much negative camber does your camber kit give?

[Jordan Mo]

I'm not sure exactly, haha.

[DUKDIKz]

liking the HRE's on the IS...

[Jordan Mo]

Got my hubrings the other day!

[LoW Accord]

looking proper !
Those HRE's are beautiful

[cireericd]

nice,one of my dream cars
