Beautiful car. You have put a lot of hard work in on it.
I really like the rims but why do people run too small of a tire on such big wheels. Why not run a size smaller on the wheel and get a tire that fits??? I dont understand. I was wondering if someone could explain.
Not trying to bash the car is beautiful.
I thought I posted in this thread earlier last week. 2nd time around?

Thanks bro! Yea my last thread got deleted over some problems with the forum rules but i already got that resolved 
The "Stretched" Tire look is used VERY widely in the japanese "VIP" Scene..
It's basically to give it a "Flush" look with the fender and involves modifying the fenders (Rolling, cutting, shaving, etc) so when you lower the car more (which i AM going to do), the wheels are flush with the fender and the tires don't damage the fender.
Over in the Lexus forum, there's a whole different category that they place the "HellaFlush" guys and they "Praise" their fitment and ability to drive like that everyday LOL
I couldn't just get a set of CF Wheels and not do something insane with them...

Your car looks good, the other cars in your club not so much. To be honest, lol you might be the best looking at those other cars, got riced up big time, but I guess thats what the miami scene is turning into.
Props on the car, you definately are on the right start.
