Thanks for the feedback guys! And no worries if you prefer the new or old wheels, they both look good, but I'm definitely stoked with the new set-up. Another teaser from the Luxury Meet... I've still got a few more to edit, among others from the meet/for friends, haha.

The CV3s are also very easy to keep clean

YES! Cleaning the Stance wheels took more time to get in between the spoke/lip and to get the barrels.

Thanks! And I have small plastic washers in the wheel-well screws, and I have like 8-9 along the bottom. Its definitely snug, because its pulling the yellow foglight vinyl... luckily that's a cheap fix, haha

And two more edits... still have more to look through...

It looks great man. Will look even meaner with some proper size tires in the back to get rid of that stretch.

I used the same tires from the last wheels. And the fenders aren't rolled, hence the stretch

Im not talking about "slamming" it or making it dumped so don't freak out about functionality or whatnot but your car would look so much better a tad lower. IMHO the 19's look too big with that amount of gap
i like the height he has it at now. he has coilovers so he could slam it just for pics if he wants. at the curent height it looks like hes ready to tackle some back raods! i think the lip makes it look higher up in pics then it is cuz it is angled up slightly. this lexus is an inspiration to us all. i really had my heart set on some 18s cuz i want more sidewall but looking at this sc with 19s is really changing my mind.

Thank you guys!! I seriously appreciate the positive feedback! Glad that my taste satisfies you all as well as myself, haha.

Thanks, me too. I'd love the rear to be lower, but until I can afford the body-work needed with the fender rolling and likely a paint job, it'll stay this height. I'd ideally love bags, then I can rollat this height comfortably and slam it when I want to, lol and yes, this car definitely has a raked stance, but I've grown up loving muscle cars, so I dig it. More sidewall would be nice, but you can go lower on 18's and have a better ride.... oh well, I love my 19's

haha, thanks! She's even cleaner now that she got waxed today! Need to look into claybar-ing it, probably wouldn't hurt...

also, I'll try to make a progress/build thread so I can put all of my updates and random photos there, rather than a million new threads!

Thats a good idea if you claybar it.... it wont hurt at all, actually it will pull out all blemishes and water spots hidden in the paint. I think it will look sleek. Go for it! lol. Its easier with the thread. BTW you planning on going boost? or swap?
