Default Day Shots: New Wheels

Thanks for the great responses on my other night post. Here are some day shots.




Lip Service




BTW: I just installed Eibach SC300 lowering springs. I guess they need time to settle.

Quick... You're correct! Good eye! Thanks for all the great feedback! The wheels are Privat Fahrens:

18x8 Front 235/40
18x9 Rear 265/35
40 Offset

Here's more shots of the side

I only know because those are one of the few rims that fit the VR-4/Stealth Turbo's front brake calipers. Not to mention they are a sweet wheel and look equally good on your SC. Here is a pic of 18's on a Stealth TT.

Car looks fantastic with the new wheels and drop. I think I saw your whip on Northern Blvd. the other day. You're Asian, no?

I have the Eibach's for my SC400 as well...i don't think they'll get any lower than that...The Eibach Lexus drop is pretty conservative...I regret getting rid of my Espelir drop...

Those wheels are lookin' good! Reminds me of those new 5zigen wheels out right now..
