that is one clean ride... i'm sure you have alot of heads turning when you're out cruisin...
just curious though, why'd you drop to nineteen's after the dubs?

The 20"s didn't fit right and back then I was into the Dubs hype but now I think that 19"s with the kit looks perfect and the ride is so+++ much better!
Hey Do-Luck Sc,
I think that any performance shop will tell you the norm or the safe route but the boys at EuroSport go to the extreme(in my opinion), I have some crazy pics of the ***** they do, it's pretty impresive (totally japanish)
Here's a sample....guess what car...

I think it's the other way...under 38...because aren't supra wheels supposed to be in the 40's? not sure...ain't no wheel pro

that's weird... it was to my understanding that with anything over +38 offset, it would rub the suspension....
could anyone clarify?

The fronts fit because the tire is stretched so far on the rim. If you used a proper 275/30-19 (technically what a 19x9.5 would be used for), the tire would contact the suspension upright.
The rim clears because it is at a smaller radius from the hub centerline, and the upright is curved away from the wheel at this point. BTW, a higher numeric offset moves the wheel inboard, a lower numeric offset moves the wheel outboard.
Overall, the car looks sharp! Congratulations!

DAYEM!!! Those are kick-a$$ pics! (I mean wheels ... and bodykit) Post more. BTW, are those wheels available in chrome and gold trim?
I've always wanted the AutoCouture kit and the Manaray VR-5 Quest wheels. But those wheels aren't available anymore. Judging from the looks of yours, I might have to consider them.

a little too extreme for me but cool...
did you say echo... put that pic up next to the sup'd up tercel and paseo.
btw, stay out of waiks and downtown with your safety sticker bracket the way it is (doesn't look like you can see it straight on from the rear).
hope you got your affidavit for the aftermarket parts from eurosport for your reconn. even if you can get a safety inspection without your reconn, i'd suggest you get the affidavit anyway just in case...
last time (last year) i went to eurosport, they didn't want to install anything on a lexus car (unless it was an is300)..but they'll sell you the parts though and pad their profit margin. so much for one stop shopping.
