Default 2008 Lexus IS350

My Lexus IS350 on 18" by 8.5" Traklite Trak-K's. Running 225/40/18 in the front and 255/40/18 in the rear. I also plan on drilled and slots, painted calipers and a lip kit. Maybe even lower it 1.25". That will be about the extent of it. Already have the exhaust and tinted tail lights been worked on.

why stagger the tires if you've got a square setup for wheels? now you can't rotate them. I don't get it.

That's how mine was done too, with the device mounted on the wheel. Instead of a drive up ramp, the shop I went to had an in-ground lift. Those ramps are pretty elaborate though!! I guess that shop does a lot of lowered cars?

We have 2 of the Hunter Hawkeye Elite Pro aligment racks...best in the business right now, makes alignments so easy and quick now. The racks themselves even have built in LED lights for the techs to see better...so cool.

But those ramps are silly...when I purchased the racks, you can order extended ramps that will accomodate lowered vehicles. I put them on one of the racks, and the left the other one with the standard lenth...looks ghetto to spend over $50k on 1 rack and use boards like that...SMH
