Bought knock-off mexican 16x8 -0 offset w/ potenza re-11 tires.
Had to roll the fenders. Overall I ended up hating the rims, but LOVING the tires. So much so that I bought them again.

Then the safety needed to be increased due to the sticky tires increasing my speeds on corners.

Every single road outside of major cities are like this, but usually paved a lot better.. The entire time I was there I was on the move, or in a tour buss, or cab, or unable to stop so I didnt get a chance to take my own photos of these beautiful roads.. I thought I'd be able to go home and google them, but as i found out there is only 1 or so photos of the winding roads in st lucia.

Grabbed some BBS -CK for the black lexus is300

 

Picked up another summer car.



Girlfriend had a mishap in the daily driver, RIP beautiful black shepperd


I ended up with this for winter



Now that winter time is here and I have a vehicle with 20'' rims. I'm no longer able to have fun in the snow without warping wheel bearings. So for winter instead of beating on an is300 I'll be doing this instead:





Miata is currently waiting to be detailed & tuned w/ a big spark kit .
Lexus is currently having all fluids changed, rewired, switched to haltech, and much much more.

 

Love the pics!! Nice story....St. Lucia has great rum

 

Some of the best, It sure did a great job of knocking me out while I was there!

 

looks like you are having fun, congrats!

 

^^ my wallet is having fun,

I will be having fun next summer once its all said and done.

I really wanted a stock first gen is300 to slide this winter.. Nothing is better than a rwd sedan or coupe for winter with some good winter tires on it.. Disappointed that I have AWD actually

 

So right now you have a miata, is300 and fx? Nice collection of cars. I love the fx, it sounds incredible haha

 

Wow great project!

 

Love the read! Show us more pictures when you are done.

 

Nice pics... How do u like the FX

 

Nice Miata, get rid of the pink ***** shifter please!

 

Fun read....

 

Nice cars. No pictures of the Miata with the BBS wheels?
