Thanks Sean, yeah I raised it a little more. I think I'm finally satisfied with my fitment now.

If someone had just told me what you did to your tires, I would have probably called it a dumb idea. Seeing the pictures, I would have been wrong. That looks pretty good.

Believe me, I was on the fence on doing them. I thought it would be to loud but I gotta say it really compliments my car imo. Thanks for the compliment.

Only recent photo of my GS430. Recently installed Megan Racing sway bars and Bilstein B8 shocks. Planning to replace the wheels at some point with some ISF wheels.

It's the other way around. L-Tuned packgae gs400. Makes you the original GS-F but just a little technology out dated. lol

Looks awesome! Maybe a bigger tire out back? What size are you currently running? What are the specs on that rear wheel?

Here is a shot of the back of the car. The rear is 19x10 275 30 19 +45. I'm pretty sure I can get away with a 10mm spacer without shaving the rear

Nice, wish I could stuff a wider tire than a 235/35 on my 19x10s lol. Offsets are 25/15 front/rear.
