Many fresh parts for this spring )
Full brake swap from JDM RC300h FSport (actually the same parts as IS350 FSport boasts) is finally competed. The calipers are professionally painted - solid black with two-color metallic "F" logo (and clear coated, of course) - GSF style ) The rotor hats are painted in matt black. Endless SSM pads inside ) Iphone pics now, better ones will follow.

Switched to the Michelin PSS for this season - hated my previous Toyo T1 Sports for the stretched look and harsh ride. 245/35 and 265/30 are sitting just right on my RAYS ) And the ride is really magnificent - MUCH softer and smoother than Toyos. Definitely the best street rubber money can buy.

When are you going to post pictures with the new brake calipers installed with the wheels on? Curious to see how they look behind the wheels.
Also want to hear your feedback on the improvement they made. I have an IS250 as well and have been thinking about upgrading to the IS350 front brakes.

Thanks! No problems with 245 PSS running on 8,5 ET38 fronts with 5 mm spacers. But the drop on my Teins is mild, so if You are lower the Michelins can rub a bit.
