after seeing that white one ive finally decided on what to do with my car-------just going to get 97 sides and rear----keep the front the same as I already have the lip on it as well.

Sorry if it seems like im copying but i think it looks really good-and most importantly it is keeping the car somewhat stock as they are lexus oem parts.

It would be great to get a few more shots of that white car if possible----some side pics would be great ---thanks in advance----very nice sc

[QUOTE=GS FONZy;6183451]This has been covered many times before with pics!

My personal opinion would be:
20" w/kit
19" 97+
18" stock

I had 20's on my 97 just to see how it looked. They didn't look bad, but they were a little big for that car.

[QUOTE]

Agreed 100% this topic has been talked about so many times!

18s


20s

One has a kit and one doesnt though, try throwing those same 20's on the stock body 92-96!

IMO it'll look unproportional, if you have a kit as in your second picture it'll look great.
I agree 18 do look kind of small on 97 kit, but thats because i have step lip so it looks like 17's kinda.

I would probably get 19's MAX.

1willy1 show us your car.

hey joey no copying

lol jk man---yes i dont know how anyone could not like this look--its clean and its OEM lexus all the way --no aftermarket kits and no worries about quality or fitment

using original lexus p[arts is always the best way to go in my book---although of course there are some very very nice aftermarket kits out there----also alot of junk though from what ive heard.

good luck with your car joey---all the best looking forward to seeing how yours turns out as well

Leave the spoiler. Also I read somewhere that it actually helped with fuel mileage in some car mag.

I agree, i think it completes the car. Some have different opinions tho, but between the 97+, being spoilerless or the 92-96 wing i prefer the the 92-96 wing/spoiler

Approved, and that was the fuel saving spoiler I was talking about.

yes for some reason i dont really care for the newer spoilers for some reason---the older model spoiler looks better imo.

Yes im still undecided on the spoiler---it does look good but ive seen some without that look good as well--- most likely ill leave it.

thanks for the responses guys
