still waiting for someone to chime in on this one question and does anyone know anything about the you zealand RCAs those are the ones i bought
You talking about the fronts or rears for You Zealand SS kit?
I had the rears, but sold it.
I have never seen the fronts of the You Zealand....so I cant comment.
In general....I would think the thicker the front RCA....(like in the EXACT front RCA = 37mm)....the more chance that if you running 16" wheels, you will rub...thus, you may need a minimum 17" wheels.
thats a great thought. can anyone chime in on this ? I have a 16 inch full size spare.
Are you sure your GS430 spare tire is 16"? The spare on my GS430 is the same 17" as the stock tire. Anyway, since my stocks are 17's I can't say if the 16" rims will fit or not, but my Sage RCA have no fitment problems with my stock 17s. Also, I'm running the front and rear (About 1" lower all around) with my stock suspension, and Daizen front and rear sway bars. Handling is is improved but ride comfort is as stock as you can get. I just had the car aligned and they were able to get all settings to within OEM specs. I used the max positive insert in the rear and they just barely got the rear in spec. It almost had too much positive camber. I'm right at -0.3 for the rear (OEM Spec is -0.3 - -1.3).
PS. I'm actually looking for a thicker front RCA, so if anyone has an Exact 37mm one and wants to trade me for my Sage 30mm let me know.

yes i have a 16' spare. looks like ill have to buy a 17" rim and tire.
is there any reason why you want thicker RCA's?is there something wrong with Sage 30mm?

It's just an aesthetics thing. The Sage front and rear are both 30mm thick, so lower the car about 1". Generally most cars have a larger wheel well gap up front, so as it stands now my front is about 1/2" higher than the rear. I just removed my coilovers which I had set the ride height even all around, so the higher front is bothering me just a little
