Canada finally put the GS400 wheels on.

this is my father's car, I got the tint for him last yr for his b-day, and he has a 2004 Camry back home in Taiwan that's............... lot more pimp than this.

anyways, the tires are 235/45/17 Fuzion ZRi, I don't like 'em as they are noisy, so I'll put on a set of Bridgestone RE050A from my 540 on 'em in same size. And the Camry lug nuts fits just fine on the Lexus wheels.

next up, lowering, which combo are the best? and factory fogs in HID, where can I get some factory fogs for cheap?

They're noisy because with 235 tires, you're RUBBING THE STRUT. You should've looked into it. Those wheels are 50 offset. The WIDEST you can go with them without rubbing is 215.

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.

im not 100% sure but on the fog lights you might have to go after market unless you want to tap into your factory wiring harness because the fog lights were a facotry option(not an accessorie). You can purchase replacement fog lights and a switch for them but then you would have to tap into the wiring harness.

Those are GS400 wheels, the IS300 and GS400 wheels aren't the same:

IS300


GS400

Another

Subtle, but definately different. Chigga has GS400 wheels.

^That explains why he can fit a 235 width tire on there. Because I'm on IS300 wheels, and I know for a fact that you can't on these.

See if you can get the rims chromed

One of the few things i wish Toyota would do. Chrome teh factory rims as an option and tell customers that they are not covered under the warranty.
