the wheels specs are

20X8.5F tires 235/30/20
20X10R tires 275/30/20
Looks good. What are the offsets, because room isn't the main issue with the drop. The wheels still need to be able to move through range of suspension travel regardless of the drop.

rims look great man! f-sport springs would make it look even better. and i agree with k2sty1- black roof on white would look sexy!

Nice start but i would consider Eibach 250 springs rather than fsport, its only a .4in more drop infront than the fsports but it does make a world of difference.

took the car into the dealer today to get 32K km service and it cost me $400! when i asked what there gana do, shes like oh its a major service. just change the oil, the filter, flush some fluid and top of other fluids and regular check. so i don't get whats so major about that.

I dono if i should stop taking my car to the lexus dealer. what do u guys think .

Dealerships are always going to charge you $$$$ for every repair/service. They always say everything is a major tune up/ necessary etc. If you need an oil change or simple work to be done, I would suggest doing it yourself or taking it to your local mechanic (that won't charge you an arm and a leg). Just my opinion.

You went out of order, by getting the gfx kit and rims before anything else.

A drop will make the car look 10x better. I would suggest sway bars, intake, exhaust, and JDM visors before IS-F tail lights and black roof.

Nonetheless, great start and car looks good. Good luck with the mods.
