Love the wheels on the first one, what are the tire and rims? And is it lowered at all?

Edit: just saw your other reply about the tire size, im assuming you have spacers?

No need for spacers they are 3 piece wheels so you can have whatever offset/backspacing you want to fit/fill in your wheel well.








Stock ride height

Is the black swirl trim OEM or is it a wrap conversion?

Interior looks amazing!!!

Also, liking that steering wheel, what model is it?

You know I don't remember. Ive had it for about 3 years and decided to put it on and paint it. Had to do a lot of modifications for it to fit descent. Bought it off of ebay. I'm for sure it was for a 2005 and below but the description was for a 2006 and up.

20x10.5 front rear 20x13 offsets not sure. Just hated the wheels being tucked under the car. I get compliments everyday and people say they never seen a lexus like that.
