Default Great mods

Hey guys,

I was sorting through the Lexus site, and stummbled across some wheels for the new Lexus LF-C concept car . I really like those wheels a lot. They are not too fancy, or gangster ride for me. Classic 7 spoke chrome. I'm getting ready to purchase a 06 GS430, and wanted to see if someone could photo shop these onto a GS with a 1inch drop for me.

Also, do you guys know where I can get these wheels, or a something very similar?

Thanks for your help!

Brick

Picture of wheels found at link below

Default Film & Gas

I have preference for bright interior with light tint, got the best heat rejecting light tint (85% visible light transmisibility; while having 95% infra-red heat rejection and less than 5% UV transmisibility). Product is Ray-Shield by Sumitomo.

I saw the Tein GS driving in the SF Valley today. It is Glacier Frost and DROPPED on some mesh 19s or 20s. This car is SICK when it is lowered. I really couldn't figure out what it was at first because of the drop and we were passing each other going opposite directions.
