Great fitment

Sorry, what is this IMO?

LS430 clear the big brake? What is his size offset front?

I apologize to the many matters, but I do not want spacers.

Many thanks

With the suspension geometry, it's the shave and roll and maybe 3-5mm of pull and 0.5º more camber and she'll drop down and kiss that lip!

I wish I still had this car :'( I had to sell it a little while ago. Some kid bought it and basically ruined it though. Oh well, I'll be back next year in either a 98 LS, GS or SC.

Where the hell did you get that front lip?? I've been looking EVERYWHERE for that one for my '94 :P

Alright....just got some 2003 IS300 17" eleven spokes with some brand new dunlops on there. Paid $300 on Craigslist! Spaced with 25mm adapters from a well known vendor on feebay. I still can't believe how much it changed the handling and feel of the car! Much better!









also recently did the tranny fluid drain, filter replacement, and flush. Now it shifts much nicer also.

Work Euroline FE. Real basic setup though... 18x8 +45 and 18x9 +35. The only thing is the front rubs because I have a 235/40 on it. I'm going to switch to a 215/35 and itll be perfect all around. I have 245/40 tucked on the back... This car I lower than it looks lol






Rear fitment has about 1 cm of clearance. My finger squishes in there lol





Fronts rub only when im in full lock.... Its so close to fitting perfectly
