Nankang NS-20 265/30 on a 11x19. Please excuse the minor amount of dirt on my car.
They're not the same specs as you have but hopefully it gives you some idea of how they stretch.

Thanks, already ordered the Nankangs, looks like they'll run similar to my last setup, I'll have 20 mm less tire width and 1/2" less wheel width so that gives me a pretty good idea. Think they'll work much better than the Achilles.

Nice work! I swear to God my kids would love that centre table thing you've got going on in the rear seats.

Thanks guys, still have a few little things to finish up and needs detailing but it saw daylight for the first time in 5 months yesterday. Hoping to have a buddy take a few legit pictures sometime but have one for now.



Messing around with some stuff for the tables.

Hey I noticed you changed LED tails sometime back. How bout a rear pic showing your tail-end. Nice job overall, but white floor-mats - yikes.

Here's all I have of the rear right now, gotta do a good detail before I try to get some good pics. Tails are Depos, nothing special. I go back and forth on whether I like it better with or without the Lexus and GS400 badges, just took them off again but I'm not sold on it.

Floor mats are a light beige, off white that matches the inside section of the seats. (carpet color is called antique ivory). The camera might exaggerate it a bit but I think they blend in well to the eye, white would be way yikes!

Looks super clean with the trunk and roof spoilers. Lone Lexus logo looks best without the GS badge clutter on the trunk. There aught to be a thread with just tail pics.

Got it cleaned up over the weekend. Light machine polish, Poorboys Black Hole Glaze and Chemical Guys Pete's 53 wax. Managed a few pics before I ran out of daylight, took one more leaving Chipotle.
