Well the tire set up is finally 100% thanks to symbolic. "Took lots of attempts to get it right"

245/35 19 Toyo Proxies Ts1 High performance Tires

The biger tire grips like a BMW with the Aspec setup. There is no vibration what so ever and the ride is smooth. Response has been improved greatly ALso 100% No Rubbing.

With the 3 piece forged wheels wheel weight with 19" is close to stock.

I Have dual offsets to give me the M3 look 3inch Lips on the rear wheels and 2inches on the front wheels. With custom offsets we are now 100% tucked under the fenders with no rubbing with the a-spec drop and people in the back seat!

Zaino process was pretty long for a first time user but pretty easy and the stuff looks great I cant wait to ad a few more coats. As all the others state the last process with the finishing spray is the key to the whole look its amazing.

Thanks all hope you like it.

Next step is in Comptechs hands I am waiting for the Super Charger and Sway Bars. Also waiting for AEM to release this intake already.

Thanks
Dave

Not feeling the wheels but the fender well gap looks pretty good with the 19's and A-Spec suspension. What were those offsets again?

Is that a licence plate jammed in the passenger side front window?

Yea thats a plate in the front window, in NY there required so I would rather keep it up there then on the front of the car. As it is its still iilegal where it is, but its better then nothing.

Handling is unreal Like I said eariler it handles like a BMW. There is such a big difference from the stock setup I love it. Again no vibration or rubbing very smooth yet responsive and aggressive.

I e-mailed symbolic for the exact offsets they used I will let you know.

Thanks

Aspec only gives the car a .5 to 1 inch drop so its not a huge difference in look. Something you would not see unless you have a better quality camera then mine. As for the way the suspension sits its on the grass wich is not 100% level so keep that in mind. Otherwise the handling is perfect. I bet if you go testdrive the stock TL and then the Apsec one you would go and upgrade in seconds. Its no comparison two diffrent cars.

PS Not sure why the pics are not working they were before.

like the blue/chrome

YEP ... I would say yours is one of the cleanest I seen so far as well. I need the springs huh? Makes that much of a difference? I felt the bigger/wider wheels helped my TL, but I guess stiffer springs ..lower center would help even more...... not savvy on the web .. can I send someone my 2 pics of my car to show ....

Xboy I wish I know how to host pics I would love to see your car but I am not computer savvy either. Thanks to rets or I would be stuck to. Please PM me your pics I would love to see your car and yes the spring really help. Once these sway Bars come out from comptech we will have the ultimate handling sedan for the money .

Well here is the ultimate breakdown

Car back in Febuary 34,395.00
Aspec Kit 4,000.00 Installed Minus the Wheels
NYS Sakes Tax 2,800.00
I know I overpaid on the Car and the kit but i had to be one of the first to have it, I did not want to wait anylonger for the car.

Moonroof Visor FREE
Symbolic Hex-1 3-Piece WHeels 2,700.00
Toyo Proxies ts-1 Tires 650.00
Kicker 10inch L7 Subs Pair 350.00
Fosgate Power 1000 325.00
Beltronics Pro Radar 325.00
Auto Tint 140.00
XM-Radio for 5 years 355.00
Zaino Kit 100.00
----------------------------------------------
Total Damage 46,140.00

I am still waiting for the AEM intake and Comptech Supercharger, I dont think I am going to play with the exhaust unless they make one that has the same stock tips as we have.

So thats it and I still think getting a new car for the money it wins over anything out there hands down,

As Far as M3 and all that I love those cars too but to get them loaded to the kills is so pricey plus they are all ready for model changes.

I will take some Pics of the Stereo and amp setup and post them soon,

Thanks all

Gunmetal

They refer to it as thin wall. It has something to do with the offset. The best I can tell is in order to fit the 3 inch lips on the back they used less alloy between the wheel and the hub, You can tell by looking at the front and the back there is less metal between the wheel and the hub on the back wheels, "Its about an Inch Thinner" This is why I think they refer to it as thin wall. You can call Symbolic find out exactly what they did to make them fit perfectly.
