I've gone through way too many sets of wheels

So I bought yet ANOTHER SET of wheels this time its for my winter set up. I made out pretty good on these sold my 16" for $550. picked up the 17" set for $500.....I seem to be lucking out this year with the deals . I was going to post a pic of just my winter setup but since I've gone through so much wheels I thought it would be fun to post all the sets of wheels that have been one the G in the order of earliest to most recent.






WINTER SETUPS



The last 2 are the set I bought from SAVVY.
As you can see I get board of wheels quickly but I think I'll keep my current Summer and Winter setups for a while......I promise

i love the last set of summer wheels above! very nice, which wheel is that?

how does the stance of your Tien S-techs compare to revised Z shocks/springs? similar ~1" lower etc? i'm about to do the swap...right now mine is identical to your first pic.

Should be roughly the same I might be a bit lower (Half to 1 inch), I did put the Urathane bushings on my rear springs to keep the hight even all around.
My last set/current wheels are Axis Milano 20" I LOVE these wheels.

Roy,

Rims look nice on the sedan. Glad they went to a good home and you got a sweet deal. Hopefully the rear tires last this winter. The only thing I have left for sale now is a brand new set of EBC brake pads front and rear for the G.

Anyways happy and safe winter motoring.. Looking forward to the spring when my 20" Summer shoes arrive from Japan for the Lexus in Black Chrome.

Ken

I seem to recall knowing the same person as well Roy. Isn't he one of the founders of the OFC?
