Default White on White - venZon on TEs

NEW WHEEL TEASER ON PAGE 4!

NEW WHEELS UNVEILED ON PAGE 5

Well some of you may know I got a small feature in a local magazine for my car/photography. I did this shoot a month ago but wanted to keep the shots exclusive until the magazine hit stands. So no more teaser here it is.


http://fokalmagazine.com/2010/06/19/...8-lexus-is250/

18x9.5 +22 Fronts
18x9.5 +22 +7mm spacer = +15 Rears

These are not my new wheels. Just a pair I'm rocking for now. New wheels should be on by next weekend!

I know 99.9% will hate the shift ****. It's just a show piece my friend brought back for me from Japan and I don't drive with it on.

I <3 HATERS!

White on white looks so nice. Definitely an eye catcher. If I had a white car, I would do the same.

I'll work on the suspension once my new wheels are in and I get them to fit.

I had 30min to do the shoot. So didn't have time to look for a better location. Just set up the strobes and knocked off some quick shots. Then did a few rigs shots.
