Finally got the issues with my rims straightened out.

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=158637

Heres' some better pics of my car with the new wheels.

2001 UL with 20" Auto Couture Supreme 3pc, 8.5 +38 with 245/35-20 front, 9.5 +43 with 275/30-20 rear Michelin Pilot Sports A/S. I really like the look of the tires' tread. I didn't think I would at first but when I saw the tire I though it looked pretty good. They're pretty quiet too. Check out how close the shaved caliper comes to the wheel spokes. About 1-2 mm clearance max.

how do you post multiple pics without having to write a reply of at least ten characters?

I'm not sure what the disk setup is for the wheels, I'm assuming they're standard disk for all four. I know the fronts are not high disk.

That PS with the drop looks hot. Seize probably isn't doing you any favors with your pocketbook.

looks awesome. i would think there would be more of a lip in the rear, but it still looks great.
