Hey Manaray, I think I saw you in the San Fernando Valley not too long ago. Were you cruising on stock alloy GS300 wheels by any chance? BTW, your car is very very clean - kit and paint are flawless folks.

Damn it, Manaray always got the goodies before I do...Looks REAALLLLL GOODDD.....

Just one picture? That is SOOOO LIKE MANARAY.....Like to teasee all of the SC folks here....
You have no idea how sick these wheels are. They are fully polished and clearcoated front to back, inside-out---not just the outside lip. That's the first time I've ever seen that on a car and let me tell you, the details like that DO make a difference! Cleaning those wheels must be like masturabation, huh Mike?

I don't want to speak for the Godfather, but that' i what Manaray's "beater" rides on for now, so that's probably him you saw.

SC400Dude - It probably was me...doesn't quite look at good with the 16's, does it?

Rich - Ok, I did snap more picts but that's the only one I kept...as always, I took many photos just to pick out one or two good ones...don't worry, I will have many more REALLY soon...

The inside out polish and clearcoat (inside out too), is SO handy for cleaning...unlike my HRE's (which were not polished on the inside nor did it have clearcoating), the cleaning is VERY EASY. As for cleaning the wheels....it's only good with midget strippers.


The Wheels are:

iForged Aeros - 2 Piece
20x8.5 Front running a 245/35-20 Toyo Proxes T1-S
20x10 Rear running a 275/30-20 Toyo Proxes T1-S

The offsets are off by a few millimeters so they DO rub a little. Like I've said before, these wheels are for my 2001 GS430, NOT the SC400. They are just on there TEMPORARILY (for the Carson Show). The wheels for my SC400 will be done REAL SOON and they will have the CORRECT offsets so they will not rub. There has been NO fender modifcations done to the car.

These wheels are available in 19" but as for price, I'm not sure what they sell for. They're also available as a 3 piece (with bolts around the edge).

Contact iForged to get a local dealer (www.iforged.com)

I can't wait to get the SC's wheels...so I can lower the front some more...looks like a damn 4x4 in that photo but that's the only way I can realistically drive the car with my GS's wheels on...I would have lowered it for the show but as you know, I'm lazy.

What's wrong with midget strippers? At least I'm not looking for Dolphins....

This is what the lowering will look like once I get the right offsets (and the wheels I'm getting for the SC are not Aeros)...gotta love coilovers.

Hey Mike, if you could make that image into a 1024x768 wallpaper (like you did with the GS on iForged) that would be awesome

Manaray,
To tell you the truth, your car looks sick with or without those GS wheels and even more desirable with the IForged Aero's.....keep up the good work dude~!

That SC looks mad in person. The JIC body makes the 20s look a lot better.

Here ya go folks...it's a 1600x1200 image so it will size down to 1024x768 and 800x600. It will NOT scale down correctly to 1280x1024...if someone needs it in that resolution, let me know and can put one up.
