Someone stole my F ing wheels!!
#92
And I agree, these wheels are very '12+ OEM like...only better! I've already had 2 random people stop me since putting them on to say they like my car, especially the wheels. I like that they're plain enough that they don't jump out at you and scream "aftermarket wheels", but at the same time the blue stripe gives them a bit of uniqueness and really compliments the blue F theme. I'm also really happy with these Evo2 tires. Haven't pushed them to the limits yet, but have done a lot of spirited driving since getting her back on the road and they've done very well.

My setup is 19x9 +35 255/35/19 and 19x10 +42 295/30/19. Mine initially rubbed severely with +42 offset, and even after rolling the fenders I still rub slightly when the car really bottoms out, but only on the drivers side (which I'm guessing is maybe due to the fact that it's carrying my 200lb *** on that side. ) So if you don't want to roll your fenders you'll either need a wheel with at least +48 offset or run a 285/245 setup, or if you don't mind rolling them you can get away with +42 and 295's - but just barely.

I found out he's also a forum member over on lexusfforum.com! Only has 1 post back in 2010, ironically asking about what tires to put on his new wheels....right before it got repo'd and then I bought it. LMAO.[/QUOTE]
You know, I've always thought crooks would be like kids in a candy store by coming onto forums like these. We let our guard down and post our cars, where we live, etc. They wouldn't have to do much searching, just come onto a forum like this and pick out whose car they want to ***** up/steal next!
Second, I'M SO SORRY this happened to you. My wheels were stolen from in front of my boyfriend's apartment this time last year. Oddly enough, after I got my car (only had it for 4-5 weeks), when I would visit him, he'd go out about 1-2am and check my car to see if it was okay (he's a night owl). The night they stole my tires is the one night he didn't go check. Now based on your story I'm convinced of divine intervention because he might have had a gun pointed at his face as well. JESUS.
