Wow dude, your car is looking great. I just got my Auto Couture kit in too, but only had time to put the front and rear on so far. Your wheels are similar to mine's except I have a big lip on mine. I have the Work Euroline DH.

Thank you! I have the Zeal coilovers on it, and they're at their HIGHEST setting right now. I just re-acquired a 3rd vehicle so the Lexus doesn't have to be my DD, and I can lower it again. However, for you REALLY low people, how do you maintain proper suspension geometry? Because as low as it is now, I still have it aligned properly, and I'd like to not lose that. I've only found one place in town that will align it (and is careful getting it up on the lift) as low as it is.

They were ridiculously expensive, but I didn't buy them lol. Nope, not from here - I'm from Austin, TX, but I'm in the Air Force stationed here, so... I'm stuck. I live on Offutt Air Force Base, and yup, papillion high's maybe 7 minutes away from my house.

Next time I get back from the desert (about 7 months from now) I'll most likely see if you're still interested!

Yes and no.. I sanded my previous headlights for 20 years, then finally decided they were never going to look as good as new ones, so I broke down and bought brand new ones, then retrofitted them with E39 projectors before they even made it to the car

It's the A'pexi World Series 2 - I LOVE it.

Awesome man - I wish I had a nice fat lip on my rims... Someday. You should do a photoshoot with yours - I'm sure we'd all love to see it!



Thanks everyone for the input!

word, If I were you I wouldve gone a size or two lower, 19s or 18s would have been perfect.

The car is clean overall. But for how much you could sell those wheels for you could find that nice set of staggered 19's you want.

I honestly have no idea what I could ask for these wheels.. Two of them have been repaired (Ref: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=327991) and I also wouldn't wanna go for just a cheap set of 19s lol. I've got my eye on the 19" Maya RT5s with the black/diamond finish.. Mmmmm.. Add tires to that equation and it adds up pretty quickly
