a few months later....
so I posted my intro awhile ago, bone stock 2003 GS300, had some minor body damage. I wasn't quite sure if I was going to do anything to it or not. Of course, I changed my mind.
In the past week, Ive gotten my coilovers in from BC, custom springs rates and extreme lows 16/12k, got toe links and tie rods in from FIGS, but only installed the links cause of the oem wheels, got the car sitting where I would like it on the oem wheels and the camber/toe set where I need it to be. Finally, I was about to drove down to see my boys at CCW this past weekend to test fit some ETs I want to run on the car, and build the exact mock up of what I would be running.
I originally wanted to run 9.5/10.5 et 0s all around sets but decided to run with a 10.5/12 setup.
In the pictures, they are show with LM5s, Ill be running LM20s with a machined finished not gold but same exact specs and tire sizes.
18x10.5 225/40
18x12 265/35
don't mind the reverse rake, the front will be going lower in the future

thanks. I forgot to mention in this picture show the fronts are 215/40 on a 9.5 not a 10.5, which is what Ill be running. Theres a decent amount of stretch on the fronts shown in the pictures above, the rears are the same. I think I had a close up somewhere on them.

yea they are 40/35s series sidewalls, a bit bigger if you are used to see 19/20s setups.
fronts/rear close ups. Dans car floating
this picture is before we threw a spacer up front so the ET is a little different then the previous posted pictures.
