I can't wait until the break in is over so that I can floor it to see what it's really got. The sound the G35 makes can't be duplicated but hopefully the burst will be close. The looks and cool of the SC can't be totally duplicated either but hey, this is a GS. I'm serious when I say the 98-2000 SC400 is the best car ever created by Lexus and I plan to get one.
Until then, it's the Ice350 all the way.

I'm starting to like that nickname.

Car looks good reggie.. about the G35 sound.. I'm sure a new exhaust can fix that..LOL Nice Work

I think the color of the wheels flows nice with the car. But i think they are little to small in my opinion. I rather have more rim and less tire. But love the color of the car and wheels. The setup in my opinion if i saw the car i wouldn't do a double take just b/c sort of factory looking. But just my opinion and its what you like, not what i like!

Manufacturers use a variety of styles but I don't recall one that looks like these. They resemble the Volk wheels but but nothing factory I can think of. Which factory wheels do they resemble? From what car?

Anyway, no problem with your opinion. I'm not 100% satisfied with them either but I like them. That is what matters. Peace.

The wheels and stance look nice. That's also a nice lineup of cars you have. Enjoy.
