Your RL is pure Sex. Def an inspiration. Seeing your car showed me the potential these cars have and finalized my decision to get one. I'll be picking mine up tomorrow morning. I can't wait

I think the rotora is getting old...why don't you get your self some Brembo's and sell it to me...say half price?

Finally Some Pix!!!

Finally got the wheels on the car and decided to take a few quick pix. Max out on lowering the rear. Even took out one of the Tein ring locks. Front still has a lil play left. Rear fenders are shaved. Waiting on my buddy to be free to do a photoshoot.

Tire Size I went with:
20x10 Front Yokohama 225/35/20
20x11.5 Rear Yokohama 255/35/20

That does look nice, but aren't you concerned about the rim protruding that far out from the tire?

Car looks amazing man.

Noticed your Platinum VIP license plate, you know Kenny? I haven't seen you at the shop the times I have been there. You should roll out with us sometime, your car would fit right in.

Came here from the COTM thread. Holy shit is this car hot.

Never been a fan of the stretched tires but this car pulls it off brilliantly.

Hello AmBiGuOuS626,

Thank you very much for your help. Definitely, I'll check the sites out.

I think your car and Touge's car are the best RL so far, but I like yours better because it's black.

BTW, you do have for your sonud system? I might upgrade my sound system, but most likely on my 07 TL-S, because the RL system is good enough for me at this point. Beside, it may cost some more bucks to upgrade the RL's system, scine, it has 10 speakers.

Thanks again

Also got here from COTM.
I test drove an RL in my search which ended in my 06TL. At the time, I thought the car was very nice. Unfortunately, the one I drove was just a hideous color/interior combo. I wish I had seen this car during my shopping. I would have tried to look at a few more.
Your car is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

My tires need to be stretch to clear my fenders due to my aggressive wheel set-up. =)

Yea, They can be taken apart...There are bolts screws all on the back side of face which is an option I choose b/c I thought it looks cleaner without the rivets.

BTW I measured my offset for those who like to know how aggressive we can run on the 2g RL.

20x10 +33 Clears without any fender work
20x11.5 +36 Needs fenders shaved and pulled to clear. Get +39 will clear with just shaved fenders.
