Pictures of my Sport Cross
Hi all,
Now it is almost summer here in Denmark, at least for a couple of days, which made me shoot some pictures of my wagon
Can't almost not wait anymore to get some new wheels!
Come with your opinion of the car
Enjoy..

Thanks I am planning on going with Tomason TN8, just as the picture.. There are just a problem; I want wider rims at the back and they are only made in 8,5" and 9,5" with the highest offset at 40.. So the rims will be too wide 
The parts clerk where I want to buy has taken contact to Tomason to know if they can do something to help me out.. If they can't I don't know what i will choose..
As far as suspension I don't want to get rid of the ride quality, so for now I will stay on stock suspension.. But if the car will look like a 4x4 when getting bigger rims, I might have to lower it a little, but again, I am very concerned about the ride quality I have a Corolla beside my Sport Cross which is lowered, just on springs, and it has a hard-as-hell suspension, so my Lexus has to be as comfy as possible lol

Beautiful shots.
Back just before I bought my RX300 in 2002, the Sportcross was tops on my list had I chosen to go the route of getting a Lexus car (as opposed to an SUV), Always a great fan of this model.

Me too! I've always loved the Sport Cross since it was new :-) Here in Denmark it is a SUPER RARE car because we have some insane taxes on cars, so we pay them three times.. But I am so thrilled to have my Sport Cross, because it's so special over here ;-)

UPDATE
New wheel fitment, found some wheels I actually like.. Those Tomason wouldn't fit no matter what.. So I found these used for a bargain! Other than that I bought some long D1 Spec wheel nuts in red which I think looks cool
Pics:
I know they're not the best quality, but I will off course take some better at another time

Does the car still have the comfort when lowering with springs? I have found some H&R springs that lowers 1 3/8"...

haha! Whats the wheel and tire specs?
You will lose that OEM feel once lowered but it's not going to be that bad. If you leave your OEM struts then the comfort is still there. I bet you will enjoy the ride even more. Just do it. lol
Your struts though will wear out quicker so upgrading those to Tokico's HPs will be your best option for an OEM feel ride.
