About to go up on the lift at Music Box (Tommy) in South El Monte. Condensation in the passenger side fog lamp. I bought 2017 18" IS350 wheels last week and had a mobile tire installer swap them for the original chrome wheels.

Haven’t had a lot of time and love to the Lexo in a while due to another project that I recently picked up but here’s some recents with all the wheel setups I have for it.

I really like this car. As I said earlier, my first Lexus. I've now driven +10000 km during this winter. Never had any traction problems (even when reversing), car heats up very quickly and also has always started very well (even when it was -36 C / -32.8 F and I did a cold start without pre-heating). The only "problem" I've had is tires. This car has so wide tires (225) and quite tight suspension and fast steering, that tire pressures need to be in exactly right condition. A little bit wrong pressures and car is A) driving like glued to the road (in bad way) or B) too restless.

But, superb winter car, I like it. However, 2.5l lacks of low end torque, and we can't have IS350 here...
