I'd be interested in hearing Scott's specific impressions of the RC-F Track Edition vs other Lexus F cars he's driven

Will the new brakes and rotors retrofit onto the previous model year RCF's.

Also will the new rims work on older models? Love the way they look.

Finally the new Michelin tire that was designed for this car will it fit the old rims if you just want to do a tire upgrade? Plus tell us about the tire.

So basically can the upgrades done on the brakes, wheels and tires be retrofitted to older RCF's?
