Columbia. Bought it at Jim Hudson Lexus here in Columbia. My 4th car from them this year alone... and the have already given them the go ahead to place the order for the ??IS??500 as soon as orders can be taken. I put "IS" in question because the tecs and reps at my dealer know it's coming, but Toyota has now made it fuzzy as to weather it will actually carry the IS badge.

paid $160 for F1 porcelain. newer tints have some metal which could interfere with reception. Porcelain doesn't have the interference issue, is still scratch resistant, and looks great.

Here are a couple of pics of my GS450h with these very rims (had SP20a). 245 in front and 275 in rear:
My Supra has 295's on the rear. the LS has more wheel-well room than my Supra, meaning it could easily accomodate 310's. I think the car would look VERY mean with some very aggressive rims; at the same time maintaining it's classy look and feel.

Here's a PhotoChop of what I have in mind. Cut the rims from a photo of my IS350 (CCW SP18) and put them on the LS. I also used Photoshop the lower the LS a little.... just to see. I'm suspecting that lowering a little could be completely out of the question with all of the on-board systems this freakin thing has. The front suspension is rediculous... liek nothing I've ever seen before.

), this one is second best. Of course my Supra is #1 
I WISH someone would come out with a <$150K car that I liked better than the Supra so I could aspire to something. I have friends and relatives with all manner of high end cars, and as silly as some people might think it sounds, FOR MY PURPOSES AND ENJOYMENT, I wouldn't trade my Supra for any of them.
