did a couple minor mods recently, 30% tint and wheel spacers, but imo make a big difference visually thanks for looking!

 

Are those 18 inch F-sport wheels?

 

yes...came with the car at no charge, so i'm happy although down the road i want to switch to 19" wheels.

 

Nice! but as a buckeye fan, i cannot truly say i like everything about your car

 

I see, nice car

 

haha thanks! may be i'll blur out the whole plate next time

thanks!

 

How come? That looks like a brand new 09, is it a demo?

 

yeah it's a brand new 09, and no it's not a demo. apparently someone ordered the car with f-sport wheels and f-sport exhaust. the exhaust is listed on the sticker, but the wheels aren't. dealer wasn't sure why either, but since the wheels aren't listed, they didn't charge us.

 

Looks great!...good Idea with the wheel spacers!!

 

thanks! i really like how it turned out!

 

what spacers? how much did you push the wheels out?

 

Looks good, but spacers are not obvious to me. What size spacers?

 

Awesome car! How big are your spacers? Did you go for the flush look?

 

thanks all! i have the ichiba version 2, 15mm front, 20mm rear. below are some before (pics 1,2) and after (pics 3,4) shots. The difference is clear.

i've been debating for a while how flush i want it. From my research on CL, it seems 15mm front is nice and flush for my wheel specs, and i was debating between 20 and 25 in the rear. my requirement is not have to do any fender mods. in the end i chose 20, just so it's decently close to the front as i have an AWD (not really sure if that matters much, but just wanted to be a little safer).

as the pics show, the rims are quite flush against the fender, but that means the top part of the tire sidewall isn't. i guess the rear could handle a tad more, but i think it looks good right now. Since i have a modest drop (f-sport) and 18" wheels, going too aggressive might draw too much attention to the 'shortcomings' IF i were on H&R or coilover with 19" on a RWD, i might have been a little bolder, at least for the rear.

 

Go Michigan State Spartans!!

by the way, did you get your lex from Lexus of AA? thats where i got mine.
