Default PROBLEM with SC430!!!

ok, well more of a problem with the wheels... this is a message on behalf of my dad... He just bought a new sc430, he hated the stock wheels (can you blame him!) so he got the factory upgrade to the 19inch momo's. They could not get balanced right after about 3 trips to the dealership, so they are sending them back. Now he his presented with this problem--What kind of wheels should he get..? He wants something in the 19-20 inch range... give me some ideas to give him...

heres a pic of his car

Default Oh! Oh!

You should get some responses on the wheels. But there seems to be a more urgent matter. Someone has hit the front of your Dad's car with a water balloon full of black ink. Your Dad should probably get that fixed first.

I mean that he didn't go to a wheel specialty shop and buy the wheels, Westside Lexus (in Houston) put them on, so I figure it was some sort or wheel upgarde...

Default How about the L-Sportlines

I recently saw the owner of Lexus of Manhattan's SC430 with some 20" L-Sportline's on it... looked killer.
