Should've posted this a long time ago:
1993 Lexus LS400
Front Windshield 35% tint
All other windows 20% tint
I may switch to dark green soon, but not sure.
No current pics (have Megan Coilovers now)
Old set-up (Hydraulics):
19x9 +20 (I believe high disk?) Chrome Shallen LX Falken FK452 225/35/19 w/ 25mm spacer
19x10 -7 (I believe high disk?) Chrome Shallen LX Falken FK452 235/35/19
Older set-up Tokico Blues and Tanabe DF210's:
Same wheels
My old wheels (never pulled fenders to fit these, sold to PureDrifter :P)
Before that:
Tokico Blues and Tanabe DF210's
SSR D5R 19x9 19x9.5 +32 and +37 offset I think? Been a while.
I forgot the tires... had Michellin Pilot Sport A/S all around and then swapped to General Exclaim UHP's on the fronts for fitment issues (was rubbing on inner)
How I got the car Stock:

Current set-up is same wheels but megan coilovers.
Still sitting on my stockies and winter tires at the moment, afraid to slap on my rims since I've been driving back and forth to NY a lot more recently.

Rolled, flared, and pulled.
If I went back to do it again I'd have a shop do it.
I want to get them all radiused now to try and clean up the mess of the front.
The rear has 2 dimples which will always happen after pulling that much but I'll also get that cleaned up...eventually.

Hey Licelsior, that's where i put my "vipstylecars" stickers too. lol. I'm about to pick up a set of ls430 18s' for $300 with tires. I couldn't pass up the deal, i'll post up pics asap. There is something a little odd about the wheels, they look like the stock ls430 wheels but they have a 2 piece look? And they came off of an 05 ls430. Here's a couple pics of them.

That's what I thought, but for the price and condition of the wheels (pretty clean). What do you guys think? I like them because it looks like the ls430 wheel which I really like, but also like the whole somewhat aftermarket look. lol. I think i'll run my 20mm spacer in the back and see how it looks. 
But I do want everyones honest opinion on em. Thanks.

They look close enough to OEM that most wont know the difference. I like most upgraded OEM look I can get. I don't like aftermarket rims which is why I did the LS430's also.
