Default BirgeyT1's 2015 Obsidian Performance Package

Hey Guys,

Thought I'd introduce myself. I just purchased a 2015 RCF with every package but cold weather. 53k miles. I flew from Dallas to Kansas City, MO to purchase the car and then drove it back home to Texas. There are some great driving roads along that route and I really had a blast. This is my third F car coming from an Obsidian 2008 ISF and then my recently sold SWP ISF (pics below).Side note: although the ISF was a great road trip car, the comfort in the RCF is next level and I wouldn't hesitate for a second to drive cross country in it. My Instagram is @birgey182 if you'd like to give a follow! ***5/28/2020***Posted some big updates at the end of the thread.














A couple pics of my ISF's for good measure

Added the OEM Lexus black chrome emblems. Will probably throw a smoked tint over the front emblem to match.

Got the non ML ***** since they flow way better with the interior in my opinion. Also, my Invidia Q300 came in so that will be going on tonight.

Test fit my Forgelines last night. This setup is going to be all business
Also installed the RR AOS kit with my custom at fitting and lines rather than what normally comes with the kit.

Got a lot done this weekend. RSR coilovers installed and getting my wheel fitment dialed in, as well as a Varis style carbon front lip. I have two sets of the Forgeline wheels so I haven't decided with fitment I will go with yet.

Visually speaking the open lug one would be my choice.
What’s the specs on either set? Are they diff?
If you decide to go with the other set, you gonna sell the open lug set?
I may be interested if the specs are right. Square, right?

i see you’re in the R888 club. Niceeee!

I went with the closed lug set. The open lug set has a 10.5 inch front wheel as opposed to the 9.5 inch front on the closed lug set. Both rears wheels are 11.5 and the same offset. The 10.5 fit fine in the front as long as you're not as low as me. PM me for more info as I am selling the other set.
