hey that's my car
I'm still around.....I'll just start ANOTHER NEW THREAD on the blinkers AGAIN 
20's ride GOOD, BETTER than you would think!
Took and got speed balanced and had to order some centering rings....got a set but was the wrong size so waiting on some more.......but there is a significant decrease in Braking....but that's about it!
Otherwise they ride BETTER than the 18's I had on my Acura Legend GS.

Some wheels (usually high end expensive ones like HRE) don't need centering rings because they make 'em for the Lexus axle. Others have a more generic fit and centering rings make them match the axle better for balancing. TireRack does ship centering rings with wheels if needed.
Where I got my wheels (MAS Wheelhouse), they didn't come with centering rings, but I needed them to get them balanced right.

Hey bitkahuna,
Yes, fairly close. I live in Milford, which is about 35 mins away from there. I currently am at school, Kettering Uni (GMI). Maybe we can meet up sometime so I can get a ride that bad boy! Bet your car handles awesome! Did you paint your calipers red?

Mike - I sure as heck don't drive to Michigan once a month! Sorry about that... I fly, so unfortunately can't take ya for a spin.
No, I haven't painted the calipers red. Sounds tempting, but I don't want to get too flashy.
I may be in Southfield Monday/Tuesday, by the way... if interested in getting together to talk wheels, e-mail me at bit_kahuna@yahoo.com.
Thanks.
