Yang,
as much as I hate to admit it,, I thought the SC430 wheels would look funny on an LS but with the lip and all, yours is absolutely hot. Very nice job inside and out. Loving how you modified the vip table and just replaced the cup holder. Would have never thought to do that myself. You may have to drop me a line on that one. Are you still using that Jap site I sent you sooo long ago? If so, nice to see that you are making good use of it.

Wow, I must have missed the updated pics.

Damn you LP, making me jealous with your cool JDM goodies off those auction sites. Keep up the good work!

I'm conflicted, on one hand you did search (YAY!) before starting a new thread.

On the other hand, this is an EIGHT (8) year old thread!

Classics live on. So long as this wasn't a dig from the classified section from that time asking if they are still available.

Default sc430rims

That's a solid upgrade, those rims fit nice. I'm wondering if anybody has painted that particular rim. Think a couple coats of black would make those mean as hell. Not on your sled though, yours is lookin just right.

Nice bro, if I decide to put sc430 wheels (and the 20mm spacers) on my stock 2000 LS, do I have to make any other adjustments to make them fit? Will they rub on anything?
Thanks!
I've been considering these wheels for a while.
