thank you


wheels are avant garde m510
front: 19x8.5 +35 235/35/19
aft: 19x9.5 +40 265/30/19


it was a difficult choice between these and the velgen vmb5. the reasons for me going w/ AG was I liked the offsets better and although they're almost identical, I thought the spokes on the m510 look more "sharp." I don't plan on lowering it. I don't mind the gap space. if I do decide to lower, I'm going w/ rsr half downs.

Thank you! It looks sharp! I am debating between 19s and 20s, but it seems like I have more choices with the 19s and better tire sizes. I'm also going to lower mine (AWD) with RSR Downs. I've seen a NGP with Velgens, but I'm not so sure about the color on the Velgen. It doesn't match the NGP from Lexus. That's just me

well...to be honest, not very many grey wheels on the market don't match ngp from lexus. my rims come in grey as well, but wanted black from jump. 20's are okay I guess, but I still like trying to stay close to true speed readings and replacing tires will suck...not to mention having a little more rubber to cushion the rim is nice too.

Beautiful! I have some Swift springs waiting to be installed, but I'm seriously considering not lowering it. Your car is pushing me toward that direction too.

Got detailed again! Polished & sealed with Klasse. Paint sealed with Black Fire Crystal Seal. The results were amazing. Check out my build thread for more pictures.
