06gs430

06 GS430, not lowered.... i did a rims swap with a buddy,just for kicks, and now i have no problems with scraping, however the rims dont stick out anymore like they did before (i kind of liked that look, call me ghetto....) im planning on re-swapping to my originals, then selling them to get some sweet !Removed! HRE's, this time measured to fit ;-) scroll up the posts to see how my car looked with the old rims, any thoughts? which rims looked nicer? thanks.

I've also smoked out my back lights, but i need all your opinions. i recently did a rims swap with a buddy of mine just for fun. tell me which rims u think are nicer, the ones i had on before, or these?

I have an 06 GS. There's a menu option where you press i believe menu, then maintenance. In the maintenance menu there's a TON of other buttons to push, when u push them it says how many more miles until that specific maintenance should be done. However, when you select any of them, the miles left and date is blank. Do they honestly expect us to sit down and manually input this information for EVERYTHING? (oil change, brake change..so on) Or, is this something the dealer does when you take it in for your first maintenance? Does anyone know what im talking about? Im not really sure how else to explain it.

sorry for the extreme delay, i forgot to check "enable email notification of replies" so i assumed there were none until i stumbled upon my own post. here's a pic of my ride. ive done some minor mods. basically just rims and tint and a bosch loud !Removed! horn (its a glendale thing)

well i saw this on crutchfield and thought it was pretty neat. thinking about getting it... its an ipod adaptor that fits perfectly with gs's (and other cars too) its one of the most promising ipod adaptors ive ever seen. doens't come out till october though. the full link to this product can be found as follows. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-XnRJ5xyg8cf/c...=771#morephotos let me know what you guys think.

Here's my Quartz Shadow Metallic GS430 It hasn't been lowered, but has 20" Armano Hampton rims. As you can see the front has a lot of room for a drop, but the back is pretty much skin tight. It SCRAPES HORRIBLY everywhere i go. Even the smallest driveway. Whats really scraping is rubber on a metal strip inside the wheel well. The tire is being shaved away like butter. I cant have more than 2 passengers at a time, its really quite horrible. I dont know why they made the car this way. Automobile manufacturers aren't stupid, they know we mod our cars and put rims. How come the BMW 645 can fit 22's but my lexus barely fits 20's. Not fair :-(

did i just read that?

hey 06gs430, i was wondering if you are having a "Low-tire pressure" warning light on your dash after you put the custom rims on? do u know of a way around this problem? Sux having a $50k car with that stupid warning....you think lexus would have thought about people putting custom rims on these cars ← i was worried about the same thing, however it isn't an issue for me, somehow the guys who put my rims on, managed to somehow fit the sensors into my rims. no problems so far, except for horrible scarping. the wheel rubs agains the wheel well. the tires are pretty much being carved. i dont know what to do.

paid so much for the car, and got those wheels?.... ← sorry i just dropped almost 60k on a car, next time i'll make sure to get rims you approve of.

i wanna see some other people with the blessing that i have. Post only pics and whatever mods u may have. I dont wanna see any pics of your "other car" No 4 bangers or bikes.

honestly, the m has some stuff the gs doesn't have.......the gs has some stuff the m45 doesn't have. im obviously gonna say lexus is a better bet because i own one, but if you REALLY wanna break ur problem down into the simplest form, answer this questions: would you rather drive a toyota, or a nissan? toyota=lexus nissan= infiniti when i test drove the lexus, i dind't even wanna test drive the m45. basically in my mind i was thinking, there's no way anything could be better than this. im EXTREMELY happy with it.

if you have the camera and wiring installed, its as simple as taking it to your local car audio store. preferably a famoous one such as all and ed's auto sound ( a mom and pop shop may not know how to do it) all you'd need is an LCD screen, and they'd have it working in no time.

im a 20 year old real estate agent. i sold my 2000 Ford Roush Stage 2 Mustang. I put the 15,000 i made off the stang as down. My payments are 633 a month. Its a lease. I did the math, after the lease is over, im only going to owe 10 on the car. with deprecciation, that should come down to like 5000. basically all i gotta do is pay 5000 and the car is mine. I actually am very happy with this deal. What do you guys think?

i recently purchased a 2006 gs 430. while they are safety precautions, they tend to become a bit annoying. some examples: if you are watching a dvd, when the car comes out of park, the video dissappears several buttons on the touch screen become inoperable while the car is in motion does anyone know how to disable these features? its great they care about my safety, but i payed 55K for a car that i control, not a nanny.
