Lexus 2IS: CF JNKY on CF Wheels
Hey guys my name is Robert and im new here but im not new the the whole forum thing LOL. Im a VERY constant member of ClubLexus and recently heard about this site... There's some pretty amazing rides here! I look forward to contributing my knowledge/help as much as i can! 
I have been in the wheel market for some time now and haven't found anything to satisfy my taste. I recently & finally ordered a new set of wheels after looking for about 4 months and figured since im the CF JNKY, what kind of finish can i go with besides CF
Strasse Forged CF S5
20x9 2" Lip
20x10.5 4" Lip
I got them JUST in time for DUB this past saturday down here in Miami!
May i add that im the FIRST 2IS on Carbon Wheels!
I would like to say thanks to my photographer Raymond N! Check out his Flickr for some badass shots! He's a very talented young man!

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 for the comments guys!
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.
