I'm following in your footsteps brethren!

I think your ride looks great. Any pics of side that show your offset? I'm looking at wheels and do not want to go too aggressive, want to keep stock ride quality as well.

New Member here just got my wheels, figured I'd show em off.

MHT Wheels 21" don't know the name/specs of them though.
Look very similar to the Corsica's but they don't have the solid spoke. The place I bought them from said they were custom made.

Lowered on BC Coilover

Just reading through the stickies gotta figure out what I can do about my rubbing not much of an explanation on it, its rubbing the bracket thing where the fender and bumper meet in the front. I'm thinking a little hammering is in place.

^ ^ ^ ^ Nice!

What do you drop on? It's interesting how the rear looks a bit lower than front... exactly opposite of mine.

Awesome vid Mike, car looks sick have you ever thought about the Black chrome LX mode grille??? The theme is good how you blacked the grille bezel out yet left the headlight and chrome trim around the windows and bottom of the door. The stance is nice classy and sporty looking. whats next??? BBK, Body kit? You have to have the itch after seeing what the CV3s have done to your car she is one of my favs now!!!

Thanks. Tanabe DF, dropped 2"...now since I have a hybrid, there is a 400lbs battery in the rear...and the springs are for the GS 430/350...Tanabe has offered to do R&D on a GS 450h for the correct spring rates but I can't get anyone in Cali to go

Thanks mahn. No, I'm happy with the Blitz Carbon Fiber grill. I actually bought another one so will sell the one I have shortly. For now I left the chrome, I am seriously contemplating painting the chrome black chrome or graphite...

Next mods? I'm still between a BBK or OME sized drilled brakes...the GS stock brakes are great and are large enough even with the CV3....but I know a BBK will be breathtaking...Maybe a lip...I have L-tuned skirts on my 2GS and that thing scrapes all the time
