Car looks real good. My only thing is why such thin tires??....225??....why not 235 or even 245??....You run a big risk of damaging the rim.

with no camber kit you have to be very selective with tire sizes to prevent rubbing

Thanks! I really want to but it just seems like a pretty big job to do it and i dont want to risk getting condensation in them if i don't seal them back up correctly. But who knows, i might get the urge one day and just go for it.

like the other guys were saying, i had to run a stretched tire in order to not rub. I like the look to and so far its riding really good.

wow man, I thought the rims alone set your car off perfect but being maxed on the coils did it, simply an amazing car

Me to! I don't think there is a white TL on the site with white wheels. Hopefully someone will try it soon

update: Opened up my headlights and painted them black. Sorry about the dull spot on the outside of the lens. I need to get that off some how. They are staying sealed good and no condensation inside. heres some quick pics:

Looks excellent...
What are the "dull spots"...from the sun?

Nicely done, although I was actually pretty impressed with the stock lights adding some color to your car.

Try this, wetsand with 400 grit paper, then 1500 then 2-3000K, then compound out, then polish and put on some protectant. Lights will be perfect.
