Hey guys, thanks for the comments.

neurocity- I sold the turbo kit... sortof got tired of it (go ahead, flame me ). The VR4 wheels are up for sale. A local buyer might pick them up soon though.

TurboTeg- Yea, the TE37 (in my opinion) wouldn't flow too well with the sc300's curves... but I felt the LE37, with the polished lip, would flow rather well.

javyLSU- thanks. I'm gona try the spacers just to see how they look.. they're only $20/each, so it won't kill me if I didnt end up using them

sc300max- I know.. I've been waiting for the damn Vertex front lip since JUNE! It's been 5 months, but it will definately arrive within the next couple weeks.

Sly Guy Yu- Yea, the turbo kit was sold a couple weeks ago.

One HoT- yea, all 4 fenders are rolled.

I think a Vertex front lip would complete the car. Hmm... what to do next? Any suggestions?

I used to have an 11 second 3000GT VR-4... and the 13 second Lexus wasn't exactly up to par with my old car. Also, my previous car was a 6spd- and this one is an auto... It was fun, but just wasn't the same feeling. Yea, I was really happy with it- since it met and exceeded my expectations, but over time, I literally got bored of the whole automatic tranny and didnt feel like converting it to a manual. Nothing was wrong with the kit, the car ran fine... it was just personal preference I guess.

Looks good, i'd definitly add the spacers though, here is my old setup with +22 (19x9.5/10.5)and rolled fenders. +29 would fit alot better though.

^^^^ Wow.. love the flushness of those wheels and the color combo bmsport.

Blk97.. you mention that you have LS calipers coming.. are the rims going to clear them?? Maybe have to save the spacers for the front.

I never said anything about no rubbing, lol. I pulled the rears a little and i have plenty of room back there, but the front does bottom out occasionally over gnarly bumps. My new car doesnt have this problem anymore with the widened fenders.
