for everyone!!!! well the wheels are on, but i got mad adjustments to make before i show everyone, and the stock TL quote "CLASSIC" imma have to put that in my sig! As far as what im doing, i have to dial in the camber in the rear, its gonna be around -4 to -5 or rear camber, the front is around -2.5 camber. and Roger is right i couldnt rock 20" like the big boys, i also couldnt rock 19" like the big boy's either i wanted the TL to sit as low as possible so i went down to 18" also the car is gonna be raked similiar to that of the DUB world, NO NOT DUB like 22"+ rapper status wheels but V DUB tire question came up, well Front 18x10 on 215/40/18 Rear 18x11.5 on 245/40/18. (ive heard every why its not good to stretch reason please dont bore me with comments like that)front dish is 4" the rear dish is 5 1/2" as far as offset, you guys can figure it out yourself , but time is winding down SEMA is around the corner rushing to finish the car

at drive height -1.5 front and -5.5 rear, full down -3 and -7 give or take. and yes thats gold, 18k dubai gold, i wish it was dipped in real gold but that is costly!!!, maybe next year.



the car is MAD dirty havent washed in at least a month, also i didnt realize how tall the 245/40 would sit so after sema dropping it down to a 255/35/18

big ups to to my SEMA Sponsors

Love the gold on the wheels, fronts look on point but to me the rears are a little too much... imo I kind of actually liked your old setup more than the new one

Haha all comments welcome. I figured this wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea since I strayed from the safe zone. I liked my old set but it didn't have that look at me presence. Now it got that vw/Audi stance with some crazy color. Sorry I don't have more pics, but that was from my iPhone straight out the alignment rack

Is it possible you could take a pic of your new setup dump to the ground. I want to see the clearance how the wheels get tucked inside.

Holy shit

Effing dope as always dude! I think I would have liked the silver face more than the gold but like you said, you'll get more looks with the gold. Less than 3 weeks until SEMA!

That stretch is so dangerous. You could really get hurt like that since you'll be touge battling and hitting offramps at 80+. That so dangerous. I can't believe anyone would do that to this car. Your car looks broken. The bead will fall right off the rim......
