Lexus IS250 sitting smartly on Vossens
Lowered just right with some H&R springs, this Lexus IS250 just got some new rollers compliments of high grade wheel manufacturer Vossen. Seen here on a rainy day in South Florida, the VVS-083 design flows very smoothly with the IS’ sporty lines. 19×8.5 with an et of 32 up front, while the rear is sporting 19×10 and an et of 38. The smoothness of this design suggests Lexus should have equipped these from the factory. Very well done Vossen!
