Nice wheels!!!

Welcome back Manaray...

I know this is kind of a different subject than the thread suggests, but it was already mentioned..

I also have the "executive" tint on my LS and my wifes Honda...I don't know if all aftermarket tints have this quality but it takes on the color of the interior...my LS is black w/ tan interior and my wifes honda is charcoal grey w/ grey interior and the tint looks completely different....mine looks "smokey" but hers has a more "mirrored" look...this is the first time I've had aftermarket tint so I don't know if all tints are like this...anyone???

Ah, it's good to be back in the U.S.A. Italy was not a "relaxing" vacation (except for the day I spent on Capri Island...that was pretty relaxing)...busy, busy, busy...but I did snap a few pictures (120 or so!)...check out the micro-super-sub-compact I snapped just outside of the Vatican (next to the Sistine Chapel). I have some more picts of Italy if anyone's interested...plus a few car picts (no Lexus...I only saw two there and they're the same as we get here)

Back to the subject...Erick, Coilover would be the best choice. The Tein CS would be a good choice to retain decent ride comfort...which can be adjusted to a certain degree with the dampening adjustment. If you like stiffer suspension, you can go with the Tein HA's or the H&R setup....of course, they're all height adjustable so you can "even out" your car

As for the gap, did you change the size of your tires or did you just take the old tires and put them on the new 20's? If you kept the same tires, there is no reason why the gap should be different...it COULD be an optical illusion (due to the design of the rims)....

the old rims where just generic fit and rubbed
these dont rub at all
