I personally like those rims too, its a good replacement for the stock wheels. Looks a whole lot better. Also your not that low, looks like nice tho.

Everyone has their own opinions, but some folks just try and get more attention.

I'm going to change my tires in the front and take some more pics I'm sure my new tires will tuck a bit more than the ones I have now...
Hey Busha, We gotta meet up some time. Funny I just did the same thing yesterday but only got the fronts done before the rain came. I'll get the rears done when the rains done. looks like you got stuck taking pics in the rain. Cars looking good though I can't wait you get them new wheels on with some good offsets. What are you dropped on?

Here in sherbrooke I think our roads are worse. Not to mention we still got gravel roads on the country side. I hope to be rocking 20's and air sometime.

Keep it up buddy!

BTW OP even though u on my ignore list, noone (well i cant say noone) i can speak for myself, im not hating but when you post a thread that says go low or go home and then u post a almost stock height gs your really just asking for people to come say stuff u dont like

I was with you up to there. Thats about 2-3 inchs lower then stock, actually a descent ride height for a daily driver. Not like he said "go air or go home" (plus isn't his lower then yours? not hating)

If one posts a stock lexus theres lots of comments to lower it. So one lowers it then all the haters come and post that it looks like a honda.

Funny I used to be on clubneonquebec, now clublexus sound like its headed the same way, what happened to the pride instead of the bashing.

Can't say I'm a huge fan of the wheels, but what caught my eye were the cleared and tinted tails. Have any more shots of those?

Tucking the tire is enough for me it's hard enough to drive out here at this height trust me... There are pot holes big enough for your whole car to fall into lol
