My car is now complete. I can honestly say that I did this car proper just like my Accord. I have a fully adjustable front (ball joint) and rear (3 piece arms) camber kit/toe/control. I am lowered to a nice height and my whole car is completely in OEM alignment spec. I will never have to worry about prematurely ruining my tires. the car runes so smooth, esp. now with the wider stance. You would never know the car is aligned. I did purchase the EDFC, but do not plan to install. It is stil BNIB

when you ordered your spacers originally, do you remember what the stud size you went with was?

just call in the spacer company and let them know your stock lug nuts are m14x1.5 they should be able to know

'Sup Chaqui?!?! We spoke
Brian, glad you're back, man...your pictures came out great and let me tell you all, this car drives as well as it looks. I wouldn't touch a single thing, save for spacers.

Brian, I was wrong too, you can use your same lugnuts...I was picturing having to use those lugs on the spacer holes, but obviously, that's not the case. Just make sure they're Lexus thread pitch...
