New Set Up!!!

I've had my TLX for a year and a half now. Had most of the OEM parts added little by little. From fogs, trunk spoiler & lip kit done to it. Then had my grill blacked out. Now I just got Megan Street Coilovers and Vossen VSF1's installed on her. Here's some pics of her now!!!

Nice! Exactly the look I'm going for on my BWP. I got my GT package installed today w/ trunk spoiler and fog lights. I absolutely love it. Looks like a different car.

Now i I just need to drop it and add wheels. Definitely leaning towards some Vossens.

Of course!!! Wheels are 20x9 +38 (front) & 20x10.5 +45 (rear). Tires are 245/30 & 275/30. Fits perfect on this car!!! No rubbing or need to pull fenders; fits flush with the fenders!!!

Kit + drop + wheels completely transforms the look of the car.

Kit, wheels and a drop make the TLX so desireable. It's just so boring as a simple base, even if you only throw on wheels. Looks good man. Congratulations on the look

The car looks good, but I think 35 series front tires would look better as the front looks snow plowish and tire looks too small for wheel. Id also go to a 285 with a 10.5 wheel to make the rear wheel look more flush and tire sit more square since the rear has negative camber with the drop. Do you think you'd rub with 245/35/20s and 285/30/20s?

Thank you!!! I just went with the recommended tires given to me by Vossen. I'm going to try and fit those sizes next; when it's time for new tires. I have coils, so I can adjust the height if needed.
