These DO work on 6MT with a 7mm spacer in the front. I have the Black ones on my 06 6my NBP....love them!!

dkid23: What are you suspension specs. I haven't lowered mine yet but I want to these next few weeks now that I am out of school; and I really like the looks of your ride. Thanks in adv.

PS: I have my fenders rolled as much as possible in the rear, no rubbing unless I have 4 people in the car and hit a substantial dip or bump in the road! I am working on getting them machined to elimiate this for when I lower it.

B827,

What kind of wheels do you have to cause the rear to rub even with your rear fenders rolled?

In my defense........I did shave the rear arches but the body shop smoothed them out and treated with a rust proof agent. So who ever wants to know the deal......feel free to hit me up........my bad for hijacking this thread but have to correct the people that know it all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

^ Do you know if they both have problems with the inner part of their rear wheels scraping the struts when they go up big hills (like in a parking lot)?

I did but now i am geting some new 20x10's in the rear. So hope they will fit since I did the a-spec rear kit mod and rolling the rear fenders. However, my ride is sitting so low, I think it will rub none the less given what b827 info. He rubbed with a full load. So cross my fingers when my rims arrive....

Ray.......not that you can change my mind.........it didn't sound or I didn't read it as a HeHeHeHaHaHa, so let Rodney handle this matter instead of you making it seem like I'm over reacting. Because you know that the relationship between you and others isn't on good terms.........so let Rodney handle it.

Thank You

If I'm a trip........you know what I think about you.......right!!!!!!. That's not the case of a piss contest.........he has opinions let him voice them to me, not that the way you're making it out to be. I like your Icon for loser.......because you must feel guilty to describe me that way. Because we all know your situation and how you go about making money or buying use items............you should use that icon for yourself. You know how I do...........so lets stop hijacking this thread and handlle this like men?..........don't you agree. And before you take this out of context!!!!!!! talk about it and lets put these schoolgirl attics to bed.

Car looks hot and all with those wheels, but I was wondering if it was your personal preference or not, I don't see why you would do a 'staggered' set with FWD car, I thought it'd be best to use that 'staggered' set for RWD? Just curious if you had any explanation behind it, but overall good lookin car...

It looks breathtaking!!! Unless you plan on racing it on a track, staggered is fine. If you can afford it go for it!!!

I followed that link to the Lexus forum and boy those guys are still funny. It has been a while since I visited over there, but to call the TL an entry model like the ES was funny to me when the IS is also an Entry model for Lexus. I won't go any further than that though.

Anyway, back OT, the car still looks great. I applaud your efforts and they have paid off tremendously.

I bought my wife an 07 IS250 AWD. In my opinion it is a POS compared to my 06 TL. No comparison at all, The Lexus Blows!

Anyway! Great looking Wheels! I really like the staggered setup to all that have them. Does anyone have the Sevas in Chrome? I would love to see some pics.

K-shawn I tried PM'ing you but your mailbox is full.

To any of you with this setup or similiar with 10" in the rear I am very interested in getting the S-22's in chrome or similiar but am afraid of rubbing issues. I have no problem rolling the fenders but what about the "Shaved rear arches" what does that entail? Anyone try using different tire sizes? Any input would be appreciated guys! Thanks!
