I'm not scared. I just think it's in poor taste to cut up the fenders. 22's just don't fit. Just like I tell the boost junky's...it needs to be done right. If someone wants 22's, they should get their fenders professionally refabricated. Yes, I'm talking about spending money to do the thing right. You'll hear my tune change bigtime when I see someone step up.

What............how do you know that. We need more info to agree on anything other than it looks alright. Even that is not in 100% agreement because some think its hot.
Until we know if there is any rubbing, tire shredding, fender wrinkling or any other issues, you can't say that its done right.
U just wanted to make a comment and didn't think before your fingers hit the keyboard.
Unless u know something we don't.

Im pretty sure that almost every VIP car you sweat with 20s on them has had fender mods, as long as they re done properly so that there is no rust issues down the road whats your issue with them its not like you can tell from looking at the car that there fender mods aren t up to par!!! Matter of fact just about everytime I see you post something you have something negative to say. I think your just a hater!!! I personally think your cars wheels look too small and look bland. Some of us like to think outside of the box and try not to bite off things that have been done thousands of times.
It's not always about how much it costs either......but the choices instead. Some of my clothes were bought at discount but I get compliments every day at work for being a nice dresser. U don't have to spend the most to look good but selection has to be good. Some of my clothes are very expensive but look no better than somrthing I got cheaply. It's about doing it right.....which sometimes costs much more. Whatever it takes.
I'll take the hater label if that makes you feel better. Whatever I can do to help.

As for cutting/shaving... who cares. It's a car just like a civic at the end of the day. If your worrying about rolling and cutting things on your car, leave it alone. In all honesty, when most people see my car they think everything was done "properly" till you look closer or I point it out.

For me personally, I don't like the wheels but with that said they look good on this car. What really gets my attention is the fact that they are 22" and tucked. The stance is close to what my car looks like on 20". I say (and I think most agree) he nailed it on that. I think this is what I8ABMR is stating. Over all the car looks good.
Also I don't think anyone here believes that there isn't any rubbing issues or fenders weren't shaved to accomplish this.
I ride 20" and have had issues only because I have chosen to ride on tires that are out of spec, I have more aggressive offset wheels and I am trying to achieve as low a stance as possible on coilovers. Now I don't know if there is a "proper" way of achieving this than the route I have taken but for the most part (like EK9 stated) people can't tell I've done work to the fenders etc, etc.....until I point it out.
Likewise there are probably members here who look at what I've done to my car and think that is not something you do to a lexus.....riding 20" and lowered what is he thinking (lol)...... In the end it's what you like

If you consider "done properly" as slicing, cutting, pulling or rolling the metal of your car I don't agree. That's not hating but that's how I see it. I'm definitely not telling anyone what they can do to their car but this is a public forum and if I believe cutting up a Lexus is poor taste, I will say it. I think 20's look classy. If u think they look bland, that's your business. I won't call u a hater for your viewpoint. I have more class than that....and that's the way I try to do things...with class and good taste.
It's not always about how much it costs either......but the choices instead. Some of my clothes were bought at discount but I get compliments every day at work for being a nice dresser. U don't have to spend the most to look good but selection has to be good. Some of my clothes are very expensive but look no better than somrthing I got cheaply.
