Default Finally got some wheels. First set on the GS.

After having my car for over 4 years I finally got my first set of wheels. I had the OEM Tourmalines for the past 2 years, so it wasn't all bad. Here's my set up: Megan EZ Street coilovers and SSR Vienna Dish wheels. 18x9 +44 (comes to +34 with the 10mm spacer to clear my Supra brakes) & 18x10 +37 rear. Tires are 235/45/18 front & 275/35/18 rear.

I see what your saying I wanted to go to the 2001-up tails but as I keep looking and think they will look clean if they where opened up and the yellow taken out.

Appreciate all the complements. I have to drive my car everyday so I don't wanna go any lower. The roads suck around here. I can olny imaging what's gonna happen when I eventually get a front lip. I've always had fwd cars before so I like being able to put wide tires on this. Don't know why more people don't do it. These cars need some tire meat!

@vince9164 - Not sure on the tint. Had it when I got it from the original owner. I like the EZ streets. Simple to install and great ride. For the money you can't go wrong. My buddy has them on his IS300 too.

@sydtoosic - I was in the gym parking lot so lots of bros at the gym equals a lot of lifted trucks. But yeah, it's a Dallas thing I guess. Huge trucks with huge lifts.
