I appreciate the info provided. You did a real nice job painting the wheels and calipers.

Thank you! And honestly, all I know for sure is that its the S204 style. I think the year was 06-07 but I don't remember exactly. I got it off eBay. I'll try to dig up the link and PM you if I find it

Nice Pics. Looks like you may need to roll your rear fenders. Any rubbing in the rear? The front splitter is a nice addition.

Thank you! And it does not rub even a bit, even with a full car.

Update!!
Did a few small things to my car since the last update. I put the rear factory red side marker back in place of the Depo ones because I felt like I needed for color on my car. The front side marker is still Depo with white LEDs. Also, I got my front two windows tinted this morning (finally!). Lastly, I repainted my brake calipers (yet again lol) to red to match the taillights and rear side marker.





Factory red rear side markers




Red brembo calipers with no sticker

We're schizo brake painting twins...I've done mine like 6 times now.
Great job, loving the thread and constant picture updates and trying new things. It was fun reading through all the pages and the transformation from day one.

You've come a long way in your endeavors and your posts.

I can't ever decide what color to do!! Funny thing is though, I got inspired to paint my brakes copper and dip my wheels gray from a picture I saw of your old TL! I still love the look of that. If only plastidip turned my wheels into Advans..

Thanks, man...silver allows you a BUNCH of options. Pick the classiest one. One day I will do bright pink. Been dying to but fear I'll get bored of it quickly.

White wheels work great on SSM/ASM so why not white calipers? I swear, I normally hit my calipers when washing wheels anyway, so white isn't a big deal to me.

My only reason for not going with white is that I desperately needed more color on my car. When I had the silver brakes, it looked so plain and boring and I wasn't digging it after a couple weeks. (I also got the idea of silver brakes from your thread haha). Next on my list are most likely teal and rose gold.

Avid.1 AV52 17x9 +10 with a 215/45. The reason I got 17s was because I wanted wheels that are lighter than OEM.

I am not sure about the wheel and tire together, but the wheel alone is about 20-21 pounds. Just about 2-3 pounds lighter than stock. I'm going to weigh them soon when I take them off to do a little fender work

you'll definitely notice that weight difference! but you could have gone 18s for even lighter (my tsw wheels are 18s and they are only 19.6 lbs or 18.6 i can't remember which)

downside is that you would have had to get new tires for 18s.

overall it's always nice to mix it up! hope you enjoy them
