Keep it all stock and 100% classy. That's EXACTLY how this car is supposed to look. By far looks WAY WAY WAAAAY more expensive than ones w/ wheels and colored this and that and tuner this and that. BIG BIG money. very expensive looking. Congrats! Looks superb!! Love the wheels.

Neil E, that is awesome! I've seen this swap before but heard that there's a problem with the spiral cable, which causes the turn signals never to deactivate after the turn is completed. Do you have any issues? Can you please supply a DIY with part numbers? I've really wanted to do this but haven't found any info for years on this project. I would really appreciate it!

No issues, it's a genuine SC430 steering wheel with my original airbag and switches refitted. The custom leather grip was made by a specialist in Poland who advertises on ebay in the UK.

Thanks for the compliment the tire size for the Front : 245/30/20 and for the Rear : 275/30/20. I went with the Sumitomo HTR -ZII non-directional treads which will allow for side to side rotation. In addition to the tire set up I also started with HR lowering springs and ultimately purchased a complete Coilover Spring Kit which provided height and stiffness adjustability. Kind of gets you more toward a sport ride verses the Lexus (luxury) ride it comes with. Hope this helps and if you have any other questions feel free to ask.
