06gs430

DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOOOOOOOOOOOT PERFORM THIS MOD. not only does this mod not work, now the button on my steering wheel that i push for my phone to come up on the screen doesn't work. all connections are correct, i didn't do anything wrong, i followed precise directions. i have worked in the electrical field for 2 years so i know what im doing. DO NOT PERFORM THIS MOD SOMETHING IS WRONG, AND I HAVE FEELING IT HAS TO DO WITH WHICH WIRE YOU CUT.

ok everyone i got everything all opened up, im ready to start cutting wires, but im taking extra time to make sure i cut the right ones. whoever posted these instructions, im trusting you, here goes nothing.

im going home from work right now to try this for myself. wish me luck.

how is it proper notice if he NEVER told me he's going to get rid of them? everytime we spoke he said "come and get them whenever you please" also, its not a problem of not having storage. its a problem of not being able to transport them. They dont fit in my car and they obviously won't fit on my bikes. Originally he had told me his "driver would deliver them to my home" but that went no where. Remember they're not just the rims the tires are on them too, i can barely get 2 to fit in my car. Furthermore the piece of crap has an escalade EXT truck and he lives in the same city as me. Would it have killed him to bring them home from work and then me go get them from his house? This guy is a friend of a friend. Im not a stranger to him.

i got an attorney friend to call him, and now he's "looking for them" will post any updates

I recently purchased my 06 GS 430. About a month and a half of having the car, i decided on new rims. I found a wheel shop and purchased my rims there. He offered to store my stock Lexus rims until "his driver could deliver them to me". A few weeks passed so i called him, he again said his driver will deliver them to me. Few more weeks passed, i called him and he said im gonna have to go pick them up. So i said ok i'll call you. Few days later i call him and he tells me he's in Vegas and he'll call me back. He calls a few days later and this time i was busy so he simply says, come get them whenever u have time, they're here in my storage. 3 Months pass as i try to find a buyer for my stocks. I finally find a buyer, so i call the guy, and the Son of a !Removed! says simply "well, i dont know where they are, they aren't here anymore" and i say what the hell do you mean u dont know where they are, and he says "To be honest were only liable for the rims for 72 hours, after that we cant be held liable" So i said "at any time did u EVER tell me you're going to get rid of them after 72 hours? We even spoke about arranging a pickup a month after, you never mentioned it, in fact all you ever said was come get them whenever you want, did you or did you not say that" and he said "yes i did say that, but i dont know where they are. They're not at my shop and they're not in my storage. If i find them, i'll give you a call, if i dont find them, i wont give you a call" Thankfully i recorded these conversations. I plan on sueing the *BLEEP*. honestly i really just want my rims back, i dont wanna sue or do anything. I called lexus they said the four rims w/the tires on them (whihc is how i left it with him) are worth exactly $3600. I am going to take into consideration that the tires were driven on for a month (even though they were pretty much BRAND NEW, only 600 miles on them, ) and im goign to sue him for only 2500-3000 i haven't decided yet. I went to a lawyer and he said under 5k is considered small claims. I played him the recordings and he advised me to have them transcribed by a professional. He then told me to go to the local courthouse, pay $25 bucks and have the marshals or sheriffs serve him with a subpoena. This all seems like such a hassle. If any of you decided to buy new wheels, dont be stupid like me, take ur stocks home with you. I hope none of you come across a dirtbag like this, EVER. Any thoughts? Suggestions? Let me know.

im going to try this on my own tomorrow. will let you guys know how everything went. and as far as i know, if u do this and mess up or are somehow caught, it will for sure void the warranty to some extent.

can anyone photoshop my car with the HRE 940R series rim image i posted above?

damn that looks pretty hard. what a gorgeous car that guy has ;-)

please tell us how to do it!!!!!!!!!!!! im dying to know!

well what im thinking of doing something like this. obviously not this extreme, but i feel extending the fender would look very sick and unique. it'll also allow me to have wider rims. no idea where i'd get the materials how much it would cost, or if its even doable. at this point its just a mad man's idea.

hey neo your Pm box is full, it wont let me reply to you. email me tadehbazik@mac.com and i'll answer your question.

any numbers or help you can give me would be great. no one knows anything about my car. i know i wanna go as big as i can without damaging the rims or the car. i dont know jack about rims. dont know what offset is or anything like that. i am in extreme need of help!!! thankss

haha, i wonder how 14" gold daytons would look. pretty filthy im sure.

are you joking? since when can hoodlums afford 9,000 dollar rims?

i want it to be a beast. i think im going to have to mod the fenders. i definately know that i want it deep dish, thats why i like these rims.

Im selling the rims that came with my Car. 2006 GS-430 They are flawless, NO damage, come with the factory run flats. I drove on these tires/rims for a month before purchasing the rims you see in my signature now. Make me your best offer and please lets be reasonable, you're no fool and neither am i. see picture below. im asking $1200 OBO

Ok so im sick of my rims and its time to get something nice. Ive decided on HRE 945R. Do you think this would match my car? Also, I know absolutely nothing about rims and tires and offsets and what not, so could someone let me know what i have to tell the Rims guy when i go to order ( the last guy sold me incorrect sized rims)

hey if you still want to buy rims, im selling the 18's that came with my 06 gs 430. i drove on em for a month then bought new rims. let me know if ur interested and i'll get you pics and stuff

My Old Rims were Armano Hamptons

mr clean is great except the stream of filtered de-mineralized water is way WAY too weak. It takes forever to do your whole car, and uses up the filter in a snap. I find that Mr. Clean auto dry is more suited towards bikes. Works well. OR....also i use it to clean my rims, but not the entire car.

im gonna have to agree with you. its just a temporary trade though, thought it might be fun to see how it would look.
