For those who are not sure of what this thread is all about I will give you a slight teaser for now. I am soooo busy with school work for the next 24 hours that I can't stay on here too long or I will get nothing accomplished but just want to point you all in the right direction......
The story of this epic journey of the past 48 hours will be explained soon so stay tuned.

Thanks for posting the pics Matt!!! So here is the story behind this whole thing. Decided to step things up so I talked with John (LRD) about looking for a nice set of wheels in 20's. He was able to find me these and this past saturday I went down south to go pick them up. Friday I spent the night packing my old IS wheels to be shipped to Kira X and tried to ship them that night but to no avail.
Saturday I woke up at like 7 in the morning to go down to ship the IS wheels and from there start the 3 hour and 30 minute drive down to Ft. Lauderdale from Tampa on nothing but spares and a supra rim. Fun experience I must say.
Got to ft. lauderdale and this was how the car looked when I got there.
So after getting something to eat I meet up with John and Roger from the South Florida crew and they were nothing but the best in helping me get the new rims on the car and allowing me to clean the car up a little bit to look like this right after the new shoes were slapped on.
Status Knight 20" rims, 8.5 in the front and 10 in the rear with 245/30/20 up front and 285/30/20 in the rear. No need to roll or cut my fenders and the car is still pretty low considering its only on stock supra struts and supra eibach springs. No rubbing anywhere and it just barely clears in the car but I'm satisfied.
After this it was work on hw then wake up at like 7 am the next day to head back to tampa and continue my week of hell of school.
Many thanks goes out to Matt for letting me borrow several spare tires just to make it down to pick up the new wheels, Kira X for being an awesome guy and working with me to ship him his new wheels, Roger down south for helping me get these new rims on the car, and especially John for helping me make this decision and pointing me in the right direction....I could not have done it without you sir.
More pics to come this weekend when I actually wash the car from head to toe.
