I like the BBS-style mesh wheels you have on the front of the SC. Put mesh on both cars

lol. Nasty! Stock Lexus rims like those are sick I do like the mesh style, but not willing to spend that kind of money on this pile.

i like them, they do look like business, fit-ment is pretty on.
they are 17's though, and after putting 19's on my car i still think they look small. you wont have that snappy response you get from a low sidewall tire.

17x9 +35 with a 275, have you rolled the rear fenders?

Are you lowered?

Looks nice, thought I'm not a huge fan of the RPF1's

Thanks gents. Yes 19's look best imo too, but Idaho has the worst roads in recorded history I believe and this will be one of my daily drivers thats why I was thinking 18's.

It is still stock height and no roll on the fenders yet. When the body work is getting done, they guy says he will roll the fenders.

There are a couple other rims I am looking at, so we shall see.

"Cool screen name".... Thanks, usually I have to explain that one in other circles lol.
