Hey Mr. Aristo

Sorry to bother you so much. I found these at the L-Tuned web site.

I want to get the set up you have. I just LOVE the drop on your car. It looks sweet.

Are these it ? Just want to make sure

Tanabe SUSTEC DF210



They are asking for $309.00. Please let me know where you got yours and also the shocks you're using.

Thanks a million

The Mayas look great- one of my favotite wheels in the "mesh" family.
And I love the finish!

One suggestion- I would paint the brake rotor hats with charcoal or black hi-temp paint to complete the look. On my bro's GS 3, I shot the rotor hats and calipers with "engine builder's cast grey" spray paint- they look nice, but don't call attention to themselves. Just a clean, subtle, OE look.

It's all about the details, you know?

pirelli tires are the *****... i didn't go staggered cause of lack of money... plus didnt' want to risk rubbage cause i don't want to roll fenders so i figured better safe than sorry. i'mma pick up some 10-15mm spacers and bump it out a lil bit in the rear.

but thanks again peeps for the props i appreciate it... now i just need an exhaust

one of my favorite mesh designs "strong yet elegant" spoke. As far as the staggered and pricing goes, its all water under the bridge now, but for future reference perhaps a little shopping around or referrals may assist!

Enjoy the car man, nice wheel choice.

Love the wheels!

I thought Maya didn't make fitments for Lexus anymore? I was ready to order a set but was told i couldn't.

Now i see you just bought a set, so i am sad and pissed at the same time. Where did you order it from?

Keep up with the nice mods.
