Great car and great wheels. Giving the SC430 a GT look- i.e. SL55,Aston Martin. One word I must add is Lowering kit, well I guess thats two words.

Beautiful! I too have a silver sc430. How much has the ride suffered with the 19" wheels?

Nice looking car. I'm thinking about the exact setup you have, except with 540Rs. How is the ride compared with the run flats? I'm sure handling is better, but do you have any problems with tramlining or drifting on asphalt with traffic grooves worn into the road? I just don't want to spend all that money and end up with a car that rides like a Chevy Luv pickup. I'm going with the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires. Dseag2 has me convinced. I like your vehicle the way it is. I don't know if you plan on lowering it, but I wouldn't. It looks really sharp!!!

Ride is fantastic, There is some drifting in grooves but that is expected with wide tires and rims. I have M/pilot sports and they are the best that money can buy and HRE deserves nothing else. Go ahead .. I wish R' series were available when I got my wheels. Wasnt an option a year ago,

thanks

That looks great! Can I recommend a slight drop in the suspension to make the great into an awesome!
