Dajap LS430
After parting out my Show xB and trading it in I used that money towards my next project... the LS430.
Went from this
to my 04 LS430 UL in Flint Mica.
.
First thing first I ordered the Data System Controller and JDM Celsior Window visors / 30% Tint. Installed and Dumped.
The next thing to get was the Wheels. I talked to Sean (JDMPalace) and had him order me my Weds Kranze LXZ in 20x9.5 +0 and 20x11 +6 both with the extra flange on the lip. He also ordered the Nagisa Auto RUCA and the Rear Toe Arms = $$$
I picked up my Nitto 555 (F) 225/35 and (R) 245/35 and got them put on the rims.
AutoFashion here in SD installed the Rear Nagisa RUCA and Toe Arms and cut the rear 1/4 panel for me. After that was all said and done, the LS looked like this.
Turned out when I went to get an alignment I under estimated the factory camber adjustment in the front. It sucked but I knew I was gonna have to ride like that until I could afford the Front Nagisa Upper Arm.
I started messing with the data system controller and snapped some pics of the perfect fitment in the "L" setting in the rear
JDMPalace came through again and I finally got the Nagisa Auto Front Upper Arms. AutoFashion did the install again + the Youzealand SS Pro Kit.
Seeing that the Youzealand SS Pro Kit lowered the car about an inch "L" mode for me was going to be off limits due to the aggressive wheel fitment.
So I had to suffice and stay at Level 9. 9 Wasn't low enough so 2hrs later after adjusting the factory sensors this is the final result. Even all the way across!
It may take a while but keep an eye out for more updates.

Recovering Lexus Addict
I'm an old fart. I just don't get it. I see the Scion and think "Zamboni". I see the rear camber on the LS and just shake my head. I do like the wheels, tint, and just a bit of lowering, though. I'll go take a nap, now.

all in all very nice on the extreme fitment vip side of the house... however what is the extra flange thing??
"20x11 +6 with the extra flange on the lip" also with the super stretched tires which i guess are a must it makes me feel like extra wide fender flairs are a must as well to hide those huge wheels back in the wheel wells.
how long did it take you to do all of this modding?

I'm only 38, but think similarly to Caddyowner on this one.
LOVE the rims and tint and a very slight lowering. But..looking at the tire angles (camber/toein-out/etc) makes my head hurt!
BTW...be careful with your NFCU card?????????

very nice overall.... clean... just the wheel size a little big.... but then things are diff - for eg. my bro loves the wheels when they are almost a little sideways... for me that get crazy b/c uneven wear and on such costly wheels / tires u have to be a baller to support that hobby.... but i do love LOW the wheel bending not so much... but clean car otherwise...
keep posting any mods... love to see the potential in this car..
