Beautiful day here in Ohio. Fresh oil change, brake fluid flush (Endless) and airbag recall.

Looks great. Are the OEM wheels close to flush? I have never had mine on the F lol. They are on my 350 right now.

There are just too many badass ISF builds in Ohio! Makes waiting to find just the right one that much harder haha.

They fit nicely...if I was going just for looks spacers should make them perfectly flush. However, I’m function over form... they’re perfect for the lowered ride height coming with the Ohlins that are on their way.

mine was a plow when I bought it. Lowered with a toms lip. I went back to oem height, mostly for longevity of the car (our roads can knock your tooth fillings out).

Have you guys found any rust from our Ohio winters on your F’s?

That’s the one thing I’m worried about since I will be driving it year round for a couple years.

This car has never been driven in the snow or winter. It was a California car that was actually a Lexus corporate vehicle. Looked brand new underneath when I got it. Zero rust

Driven my F for 4 years year round and no rust. Still drive my IS300 year round after 16 years and no rust.
