Every cheap, modified turbo car I've ever bought has ended up costing me much more than the initial cost of the car.

what is up with all these sc430's without their original wheels. Literally every single one i've seen on the road have some weird cool dad wheels on it and it looks like absolute garbage.

Cuz nobody likes those dinner plate rims on the 02 to 05 models. Lexus themselves even hated it and changed it to a new style in 06 and then again in 08 to 2010.

I think the more likely reason is it’s a bunch of corny Dads who buy those things in the first place. Haha. I’d rock one.

My guess is that the stock wheels get curbed to death by the stereotypical SC430 driver. Not just a little touch on one rim but total carnage on all of them. Time to sell the car? Gotta clean it up a bit, better get myself down to Sorat Wheel and Tire to slap on some horrible chrome-tastic abominations for $175/corner.
