It's all good I think if VJ RC51 parked next to a lot of CL members they would move their car also

NYLexSC-
I was being a little sarcastic just like you were being with the throw up...unless, that really happened-

cherplex-
True!! I think he said he would move only because everyone would be looking at my car and not his, can't blame 'em though...it does attract a lot of attention! Just playin' VJ RC51, I hope to see your ride in the streets of Orlando.

The car's lookin' ok but those wheels don't suit it at all (sorry, jmo).

I say put new tyres on the stocks or get a set of 17" GS wheels (or similar)... remember, there's nothing wrong with a stock Lexus.

SC's are nice, but get rid of the rims.

You can probably get a little bit more than what you paid for, if you sell to the right
person who likes that style.

Good Luck.

SC,

Your car is nice. Welcome to the club... BUT---> Make the change as soon as you can. There's a wealth of wheel styles that maintain the status of the Lexus in all price ranges. If you see something you like, just save up for it. The piepan, bling-bling, owww-my-eyes, chrome styles don't seem to work on this car. If you really want to keep the rims, sell me your car and get an impala...

do you have a reciept for the wheels? if so, im in orlando, and willing to steal them so you can get the money and buy something else. there are planty of atock SC, IS, and Supra wheels locally if you want to pic some up.

p.s.- there is a cruise to Tampa tomorrow... check the florida forum.

We the jury find the defendent guilty of having rims. The judge hereby sentences you to purchasing new ones, or putting back on your old stock ones, and rid youre life of those eyesores.

P.S. No hating

i WOULD RATHER RUN WITH STOKERS.
For 650, you would better off get some GS17' or supra wheels...

But a clean car it is... do some research and let the mod begin...
