hey all,
picked up a new car last weekend. here it is parked next to my old infiniti (which my brother is going to drive from now on)
by the way, i bought it secondhand. the thread title was just to get your attention





here's the inspiration:



too bad i can't afford half the shit on this car -- the LM-R's in 21x10.5 are like $4k a piece from BBS japan LOLOL
but i already have rims on hand for this thing:

they're going in for a rebarrel -- 21x10.5/21x12. i need to run at least that wide since the car is so heavy and lexus thoughtfully forgot to run tire sizes big enough to support the weight of the car and 4 passengers. awesome. i'll be running hankook v12 evo 245/35/21 and 285/30/21 -- the OD is the same front and rear and the load rating is right about correct, which is important since this is a 5200lb+ AWD car.
more to come.
thanks!
charles
