man, 20's!!!!! I love the height you are at on the car.

What specs are the works?

And tire specs?? And would you happen to have a close up shot of how low you are in the rear? Quarterside panel shot would be nice!

Looks really really good. To be honest, I really like the way your TL looks with all the rims you've owned.

Appreciate the compliments guys!

Specs on the wheels:
(F) 20x8.5 +29 off 225/35/20
(R) 20x9.5 +32 off 235/35/20

I'm in the process of pulling my fenders out. I already rolled the rears, but I want to go lower....When that happens I'll throw up more pics

Don't go any lower. You can't get any closer to perfection than what you have there. Seriously...

Wow. The teins made the wheels look a lot better on your car. Not too big at all.

How bad are you rubbing?

LOL. Just noticed you took off the body side molding.

It got a slight rub. Don't really care about the tires rubbing, It's the lip hitting the fenders.

i just wish the those work wheels werent so played out on the TL. They no longer give the factor like they use too. But if you like them thats all that matters. I do think they flow well and look great.

your wheel lip hitting the fender right?

It wont happen with a little negative camber. From what I can see, it wont hit with the way you're set up right now, even if you go .5inches more in the rear.. Fronts might need a little pull.

Ever thought about 235/30 in the rear? I think it'd look perfect after you drop it .25" more. =)

Haha, I was like, REALLY?!? The only TL I've seen here and pull it off REAL nice is ballinfizzle's. I do like the T1's as well, but I agree- I have seen it done quite a bit on WDP's.

You probably have. We just moved down in that area...

I thought about that, but I figured running negative camber on the rear's will put more wear on the tires, so I figured the fender pulls would be the way to go. I actually raised the car up a couple notches on my coilovers all the way around, because the rears were rubbing/hitting unless I'm on flat roads and the fronts did a little cutting on my front tires when I make turns. It was pretty slammed and I even had 2 more notches to go to be at the lowest setting but I raised it until I get my fender pulls done all the way around. I've used 35 and 30 series tires before and I agree the 30's look good, but I went with 35's to take away from some of the road noise and reduce the possible chance of bending the wheels...

^^ Haha, now I am pulling it off. Don't confuse these for Varianzas. Those are still a favorite but Schwerts are more rare. These are more of an upscale look. Just love the machined finish WORK puts on these lines of wheels.

Welcome to the Schwert club lsvtec. Looking great especially with the step lip.
