Super Slammed Lexus LS460 Is Quite the Looker

Out of curiosity, Brian, how much money in mods do you think went into the car that's highlighted in this thread? How much have you invested in your car? Also, I always wondered how do cars drive with those angled rims? Does it wear out only the inside half of the tire? So then what do you do with the good half? Do you just rotate the corners so that now the fresh half touches the ground? Are you able to drive normal speeds on the freeway and around town? Or do you have to creep over the road like what drivers have to do with speed bumps after they lower their ride? I'll never know these answers because I don't do any extreme modding. Thanks for the education.
A widebody or '13-current LS460 drives no different than any other normal LS460.

I've never been a fan of dropped cars, etc, I kind of missed that whole generational thing by about 20 years. But I appreciate the work people put in to make it happen.

I appreciate the work involved, & am a fan of tasteful drop and certain widebody applications; but I'm not one for the splayed ducks-feet "they broke all the axles" look. Overall, atrocious abuse of a perfectly good car. I guess that's why some people jump out of perfectly good airplanes and most don't. YMMV. No hating here, just a personal viewpoint.

To be frank, the stretch tire and the aggressive offsets make for nothing more than a nervous drive to/from shows. To some it looks cool to have the barrel peeking out from under the tire, but it's just not safe. Even more so in the state of CA that spends the bare minimum on public roadway infrastructure. I personally feel much more safe on my BBS wheels.

What was your process
Hi, i want my ls460 to look similar to that, how did you get started modding your car? What did you do first and where did you get your parts from?

Well, every culture has their taste...so glad I've skirted most of them.
