Default Latest Pics of my 06 GS300 AWD

Haven't been in here for awhile (off getting married) but I managed to get the body kit on my car and took some pictures of the results. Hope you like it as much as I do.

It's a Planoag kit ;-) I didn't like any of the regular kits (seemed to aggressive) so I made up my own. I used an Element Front Lip, TTE Dide Skirts and Fabulous Rear Canards.

They are MRR GT1 rims in 19x8.5 size (I think the offset is 35). I wrapped them with Michilen Pilot Sports in 245/35ZR19.

... and did you drop it with NF or DF springs? How is AWD ride now? Do you experience a smooth ride at high speed or is there some shaking? How about handling in a bad weather?

Not a fan of the grill but the rest of the car looks amazing!

I dropped it with the NF springs and I think the ride is great. The bumps and expansion joints are noticable but not intrusive and the handling in corners and such is much better (no floating feel like on the old run flats ;-)). I drive the same in bad weather as dry with the AWD.

It's a sexy beast but I prefer the look of the stock grill.
