Default Some new pics of my Tungsten Pearl Is250 awd!

I haven't posted any new pics in awhile. I figured let me take some since I just got done washing and detailing the car. Newest additions are the Yakima roof rack and Ichiba wheel spacers. The wheel spacers look even better in person. Let me know what you think.

45mm offset, i thought they'd be sitting inwards more ? that looks like 30mm offset.

Very very conservative mods!!! For some reason those Fsport springs are so useless for a drop.. Theirs no difference IMO..

because they are oem, they just look so right on the car, if you have +45 offset on an aftermarket wheel it will look terrible.

yea i think they were well worth it. they really look great and give the appearance of a more aggressive set up.

I ordered from here. http://www.orsracksdirect.com/ I even found a 10% off coupon code online. Great customer service and the price was right.

are you running the Fsport springs with stock AWD shocks or did you upgrade? How is the ride compared to what it use to be?

Also do you have a better side shot on level ground? Trying to get a better idea of the wheel gap.
