Looks very nice and clean. I am with the tint / tailights team. Also exhaust. I have the exact same camera, and trust me teamed with a tripod, this thing can take some awesome pics!

I like the lowering on your car, nice 19" stance. Good job

 

I have the same wheels. It is nice to see another set out there. I love the way these wheels look. My only complaint is they are a pain to clean. The gap between the rim and center section collects dust and is a pain to clean out.



And yes, I am going to lower mine about an inch. It is 4x4 in the above picture.

Hopefully it will look like this in a few weeks.

very nice, everytime i see 19" rims...it makes my mouth water...

 

That's good advice. I was thinking tte lip with upgraded but not to far from stock sides. Although, I'll probably do roof spoiler and/or trunk spoiler first.

I think there is room for bigger brakes, just not $$ for them right now. The front's look small, but it's the rears that look the worst right now. They are tiny! i was looking at my mom's LS430 front brakes, much bigger than my gs's.

Clear corners and tint are both great low-cost, bang-for-buck mod's I'll be doing soon.

I've had some pm's, etc. about rims/suspsension, so here are details:

19x8/19x9.5 245/35 and 275/30. Offset +42 front, +40 rear. Ltuned shocks and espilar springs. No rubbing, no bumping, no problems so far. Offset is very conservative. Alignment camber is within spec rear and front. Ride is still lexus-like imo. The low profile tires catch initial bumps more harshly, but otherwise all is good, cornering miuch improved. I also had the daizen sway bar bushings installed with the suspension.

Maybe I'll get lucky and a GB for tailights/exhausts will come up soon. I forgot about using a tripod. I'll pick one up. That should help sharpen the pics!

beaterKu, you're running the same color/rim setup as ikankoi. He's running the same suspension/drop as I am. They are a bit of a pain to clean, but worth it to me so far. In case you or ikankoi needs center caps, I'm ordering a bunch direct from the speedline. There isn't a current US supplier so it's been a bit of a pain to do this. I'll have extras.

Thanks again for the comments.

 

beaterKU..dude..you stole my car LOL i guess now we have SPEEDLINE BROTHERHOOD here

i feel your pain for cleaning, bro.. been there done that and still doing it!



rouge, thanks for letting us know about the caps, but i thoght last time you were missing the hub-centric?

 

I got the hub-centric ring I needed from Tirerack. They didn't have a center cap I needed. I had an italian friend call them directly and order me 2 sets of centers so I'll have extras if anyone needs them.

 

ur car take my breath a way
