It’s that time again, when I had to buy new tyres for the car, but instead of simply just buying tyres, I went out and bought a whole new set of wheels...as that makes more sense. 
The old alloys...
So out with the old...
And in with the new 
Just in time for Combe tomorrow !!!

Nah Coupe was fine. I did plenty more track days after last year's "incident".
Infact i just sold it the other day, and was sad to see it go. New owner called me up today, asking a couple of questions, and saying the car was great 
Lol !

I know what you mean. I do like the old wheels a lot, but they were really corroded to fuck, and made the car look tatty and shit.
All the Lexus alloys in that style do that, that’s why I bought the new ones. I got an UNBELIEVABLE deal on them. They are brand new, never been used on a car, and came out of the Lexus show room, where one of them was a display optional extra.
The new wheels made the car look 10 times better and newer, and I’m happy with them.
