chuck they look GREAT - MAJOR improvement. A lil drop really would be nice though.

here you go Rich, or anyone else curious.
there is enough room for a small animal to ride safely on the top of the caliper.

a little bit lower would make it perfect. I miss my GS being lowered.

I keep reading how reliable Lexus is, I am finding a very hard time justifying anything newer than my 98 GS4, which is in good shape, and can't give up anything less than my 300 HP. New IS is quite costly in comparison, maybe I wait for CPO 2006 GS300, ideally I want AWD and 300 HP for a good price

I am trying to get the same 18" set up as above, but in chrome, on my Spectra Blue GS4.

I'm thinking that can be pretty.

You guys won't have to wait too long for pictures of 06 wheels on a dropped 2nd gen GS ...I put my order in today...but I'm away all next week I'll have pics up as soon as I can.


Damn - gonna have to change my sig now.


Chuck - thanks again for the info earlier.

chuckb

glad to help

you're gonna make me want to order my Teins, aren't you? I've still got to work on my wifey after buying the wheels and tires I "didn't need" acording to her

More Pics

thanks for the clearance pics chuck. Cant wait to see this beauty with some coilovers

my chromes are shipping out tomorrow. dumb question, will they come mounted already? i doubt that since they can explode?

any 'good to know' items prior to me just slapping them on with the same lugs?

PS once I take a pic, how or who can make me a nice signature?

Chuck, looks great. Now might be a good time to paint those calipers. Or are you gonna go with a BBK? If so, powder coating sure would look good if you have the time to disassemble.

They look amazing!! How do you like the tires?

Mine came mounted and balanced. But they deflated the tires by about a 1/3 for shipping. I made sure though that the tire dealer place that installed mine double checked the mounting/balancing and had to add a bunch of air. Places around Charlotte wanted to charge anywhere from $10-20 per wheel. I was able to get Discount Tire do it for $20 total.

thanks- I know those rusty rotors look like sh#t, but what can you do? they don't stand out as much as that pic seams. too much work to get calipers powder coated or painted. have many other things to spend money on before a bbk. I actually have no prob with stock brake performance.

thanks Fernando. the tires are good so far. they are more towards comfort than max performance, but that's cool with me since I came from 16s.
