My buddy wont give up about the ride height.. Hope he will take the helper spring off the front and I believe the front will lower more without the helper spring.. The front tire is 215-40-18 or 225-40-18 (not sure) and the rear is 255-40-18.. I work at LExus dealership and I will help him get a pair of 245-40-18 for the rear so the tire will stretch and able to tuck the rear...

Around here you're gonna get some positive then some negative comments. People have differents tastes and opinions and aren't shy about voicing them on a public forum. What I like about this site is people try to be cool about it even if they don'ty like something.

As for me, I'm not feeling those wheels and seeing them in person wouldn't make it diiferent.
Good thing my opinion doesn't really matter.

I like the rims, I am glad someone here thinks out of the mold—not another cookie cutter rim. My only negative is that they are too small, wish they were 20s though... I betcha they are a pain in the behind to clean.

Wow, in the first pic, the wheel well gaps looks bigger than normal for both the front and rear.
