farkas,
That look AWESOME!! I am with you, my preference now is totally stock, I love those 06'+ stock wheels! I had a bunch of different aftermarket wheels before on my previous cars, the more I look at them, the more I dislike them and prefer the stock wheels. I guess I am tired of aftermarket wheels. Stock wheels look so tasteful!
I am going to do the exact same thing when I get my SC430![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Any chance you have side shot pics of your car?
Thanks for sharing!

It sure takes a long time to get the uncommon 30mm spacers from Kics, but finally I got them on the car today. It looks SO MUCH better!!
Thank you for your advice Farkas! 30mm is the perfect size for the back, it looks pretty much like the above Lexus show car.
I am still waiting for the hub centric ring for the front, I will post pics as soon as I get them on the car.

It is my new direction too, my new preference is using all stock parts, but making the car look a lot more aggressive. Push out the coolest/biggest stock wheels available with spacers, then lower the car. Which is exactly what you have done, it looks perfect!
I wish I can lower my SC430, but my wife drives it, and she is not very careful, lowering it would result in damage. But with the spacers alone, the car already looks much better!

Center Bore : 60.1
Thread : 12x1.5

Notes : If the depth of the wheel spacer is smaller than the length of the standard studs, the wheels used must allow for small cavities in the mounting pad of the wheel. If using wheels without cavities, the standard studs should be shortened so that they do not extend beyond the height of the spacer.

· Wheel Spacers are available as a set of 2.

They are showing that they are out of stock but they can order them from their supplier. I would give them a call or here is another source. Have not used them but they show them in stock.

Thanks for the quick answer. I've read that in previous posts that tire stores likes won't do allignments on cars with spacers, is this true? Also, I found hubsentric spacers that came with "built in" rings (a lip if you will) to keep the spacer centered. Were your spacers like this?
