Just wanted to share

Since it was getting warm around here, i decided to put my wheels back on. This is the results...

SPECS: 19x8.5 all around, 10mm spacers in the rear, FENDERS ROLLED

215/35 fronts, 225/35 rears. So no one will keep asking.

Tried a new FX app for my phone in the first two picutres.



This one was earlier today.


Thank you for looking!!

Badass. So why does the fender gap in that 2nd pic look so much different than all the other pics?

Well somehow the camera didn't pick up the actual size of the tire cause its dark but there is no finger gap at all, it sits really flush and it has a little poke, the top of the tire is tucked. The picture does no justice compare to seein it in real life.

Nice shots, that car is sitting there staring down all those who pass by saying my shit's nice. lol

One thing though, that big open grill doesn't seem to blend too well...could just be personal preference though.

Either way awesome car!

I like the grill cause it gets rid of that bar goin across the middle and the "A" emblem, i also had it painted a dark gray color from the lexus catalog. It for some reason looks flat black in the picture.

If you get the grill, don't use the upper piece that attaches to the hood cause its a crappy design and the screws are to long, you can't even tighten the screw's without cracking the piece. Just reuse your OEM one and have it painted the same color as the new grill. Be prepared to do some cutting too ahah.

why wouldnt you just put the same tires on it all the way around? that way you could rotate them and maybe get a little life out of them.and dont tell me its because it would rub. you could remedy that with a different size spacer.

i still cant understand why someone would ever put narrower tires on the front a a FWD car.
