Hey SuperJoe,

Is that the famous red calipar paint kit on your calipers? It looks very nice from the pic? Is the finish glossy and shiny?

BTW, What rims are on Ted920's car? They look nice.

Yeah that's the kit I got from you...it's really shiny and looks really nice with the Lexus stickers..and the finish is glossy.

Ted has AT Italia 2 peice 19" rims they are 8" wide with S02 Potenza 245 on there.

Why didn't he go with a staggered setup? It would have looked very nice!

Super, is that the GREDDY front lower spoiler???????????????
Both your car and Teds look AWESOME!!!!!

I remember the "big" waiting period for that spoiler.......VERY suspicious, because Im STILL waiting, and, I know for a fact I ordered that before you did because I asked you about that before....
The reason I mention it is because I think Im being fed a "load o' poop" from the "source" that I ordered through....You told me who you ordered through but I forgot, can you give me the name of the shop again?
Thanks, Tiny

guys,

another reason why i didn't go staggered is that i wanted to rotate the tires which i would not be able to do w/ the staggered.
i figured the 2.5" lip is big enuff.


i just love my new brake system.

the photo doesn't do justice to the brakes, they look totally phat and since they're zinc coated, no rust.

w/my ss lines, ebc greenstuff front pads, kvr performance semi metallic rear pads, motul 6.1 racing brake fluid, the performance is out sight!!!!!

peace,

ted

Also, with MANY wheels, a wider width wheel does not result in a fatter lip...Cosmetically, the wheel would appear the same on the "street" side. The added width would only be to the "shock" side. Not the case with every wheel, but it varies from company to company.
