- You guys have been hearing me talk about getting new wheels for the is300 and the day has come! I ended up deciding on the cosmis racing xt006r and I am absolutely stoked about how they came out looking!
wheels are cosmis racing xt006rs 18x9 +30 all around
tires are nitto nt555g2s 225/40r18 front and 255/35r18 rear

The way you stood back and admired that shit was so good
Definitely completes the car! Looks damn good bro! I’ve never bought new wheels before, always found used wheels, but after this video I want to buy some new ones 😬😬😬
Bro same this is the first set I've bought new and it's honestly so nice to be able to choose the right fit and finish. Idk if I can ever go back 😂
Stoked! Congrats on 1k. Got some nice subtle contrast on those😍
Thanks bro! Yeah I love the way they look they really make the brakes pop!
Found this TH-cam channel after finding one of these for sale where I live. Never wanted anything as badly as I want this car lol
Get it bro they're sick!
They look so nice! I'm on my ugly winter wheel/tire setup so I can stay on the road and potholes won't destroy my nice summer set.
Yeah that's definitely not a bad idea! I would be too but our winter hasn't really hit yet lol
That was a very healthy nut “wow”
😂
Looks good, specially with the ls400 calipers 👌 mint
That's the entire reason I wanted wheels so bad 😂
Nah man, when I installed my first mod which was my grille, I gave the exact same look you did at 9:40. I just stood looking at my car sitting in the driveway like damn, this shit is really mine. Just felt surreal, probably won't ever get over it
Just gotta enjoy the little things! That's how you know you're building your car for you and no one else 🤘🏼🤘🏼
looks awesome wish my IS looked that clean, keep it up man
it looks really good! also I know it wasn't the topic of the video but that tire machine is awesome! 🤣
I love that tire machine more than I love life itself 😂
@@RotaryDaddy hahahaha xD 🤣
Those wheels look absolutely sick! But, how did they fit? Did you roll/pull the fenders at all? No spacers? 18x9s are huge on an IS300 are they not? Great video!
Thanks! It's really all about tire sizing and offset at that point. My rear fenders are rolled but not pulled and it's a tight fit with the 255s. I probably should roll my fronts but in most circumstances I don't make contact. Thanks for watching!
@@RotaryDaddy That's really surprising that there's no rubbing up front. I've been wanting to go for MRII 17x9 but they don't make them in bronze :( Since my 300 is 6r4 green, I think the bronze will look amazing. What made you go for 18s and do IS models suffer much with larger wheels?
@@shizukesajdm at the end of the day I'm really not that low lol the mrII would look sick for sure! I haven't really noticed a difference driving it. I made sure to have the tires overall diameter end up being as close to factory as possible. Just kinda like the look of 18s for this build 🤘🏼
Those are legit the best wheel for that car 🔥🔥🔥
I must say I agree! Thanks bro!
@@RotaryDaddy no problem i couldn't believe how good they look maybe its the silver
I have the same LS400 brakes on my IS300 as well and it’s my biggest fear for buying new wheels, did you take the spacers off to put these on and how did you know they would clear the brakes?
Yup definitely was a thought in my mind too! These are on there with no spacers and I honestly didn't know if they would fit before buying them. I looked for wheels that were advertised as having a good amount of brake clearance and just shot my shot. Made sure to test fit before I put the tires on too. You can usually message the company to ask how much clearance a specific wheel has before you buy tho!
I’m literally living this problem right now... Tried 3 different wheels and none of them fit with out spacers. Do you mind sharing the specs of your wheels? Thanks
I have IS350 brakes btw
@@UnapologeticIslam the hard thing is that specs don't really change brake clearance. That being said mine are cosmis xt006r 18x9 +30. But to really be sure you're going to have to find the inner profile of the wheel. Usually you can email the company and they may be able to send you that.
Ooooof the car looks so good 🤩🔥💯
I'm so stoked about it! Been wanting this for so long lol
Siiick! I felt that *Wow in my soul lol
Jesus 😍 those wheels
They're some shit for sure 🥰
Dope video bro 👍
Thanks my dude 🤘🏼
Hell yeah.
Damn what a beauty 😍😍😍
Thanks bro!🙏🏼🙏🏼
Damn those wheels look good
Thanks bro! I'm in love honestly 😂
@@RotaryDaddy hell yeah!
Brooooooo that is sickkkkkk
I love it 🥰
You didn’t roll your fenders right? And no more spacers all around?
Fenders need to be rolled tight for this to fit and not rub
Looks sick
Thanks bro!
Did you have to install those aftermarket TPMS wheel sensors?
I just used basic valve stems no tpms since the IS didn't come with them 🤘🏼
@@RotaryDaddy interesting. I'm not a car guy so I'm just getting into it. Going to run these in a deeper offset on my Z. What do you mean by "IS", perhaps I might be able to do the same.
@@studiovulcan4411 oh lol my IS300 didn't come with tpms. If you have factory sensors, the tire shop you go to should swap em over for you, shouldn't need new ones!
hey im pretty sure i live in your area we should link and do some shoots me and my buddy both got is300s were in vancouver
Bro I'm down! 🤘🏼
@@RotaryDaddy pm me on insta tj_flexus
Were these grey, or black chrome btw?
I'd say they are a lighter gunmetal with the edges machined and a polished lip
I wanna get those brakes for my LS400 (first gen)
That would be dope!
@@RotaryDaddy got them. Now just need to install 👀 your video helped a lot thanks
3:35 aw 😌🤜🤛
You a real one! 🤘🏼
By the way you need to update the ending picture with the new wheels
You aren't wrong about that! 😂 I'll probably wait till I get the rest of my body panels on tho, those are coming soon! 🤘🏼
Fo sho
Drippy af👌👌
🙏🏽🙏🏽😎
What size tires? 225/35/18 front? 255/35/18 rear?
So they're 225/40r18 and 255/35r18, my last video on it shows all the details a little more in depth tho! 🤘🏼
I ended up getting mb battles in the same specs as you! 18x9 +30!
Forgot to ask you if you were running any aftermarket arms to help with alignment, or if you’re still running the stock arms in conjunction with your coil overs
@@nikeairtown not a bad choice! So I'm still running all stock arms, but I will be upgrading soon because I can't get the alignment back to where I want it with the stock adjustment. That being said you do need to run at least the stock camber to have the 255s fit without pulling fenders 🤘🏼🤘🏼
@@RotaryDaddy good to know! I have all 4 of my fenders rolled flat now! Thanks man!
@@RotaryDaddy where did you order the nitto nt555 tires from?
37lbs a pop... Damn that heavy
Ayyyy first
Your blown'n up
I'm working on it 😂
You should’ve bought real wheels
Spending twice the money on used wheels than I did on new ones wouldn't have made me any happier
