I haven't shown you guys the latest pics of my Alphard yet, but I've finally decided to get off my ass and put on the project mu brakes, the 19" Wald Portofino wheels and the H&R springs. This van is the grocery-getter of the family and its main job is to take my baby girl wherever she needs to go (playschool, her grandparents', etc), so no fancy offset, no crazy camber or wild drop here...
Personally, I think it could be 2" lower, 2" wider and -2 more camber but you know how it is...

I might go and continue with the Wald look and get their bodykit in the future....

as conservative as it is, I still think it has a very nice executive flair to it. Cool!

Ya man, I am not even going to "disgrace" the VIP styling community by calling this VIP at all, coz it's not meant to be. But I think I am the first one who got the Wald Portofino wheels here in Indo for the Alphard, and almost definitely the first one to get the Project Mu big brake kit for the region! :D

That van made those 19's look small!!
I like it, too bad we dont have it here.

I am thinking of either getting the Wald add-on kit for it or the Garson full replacement bumpers for it.... but this is so far into the future. My current funds are being sapped by my Subaru which should be out of the engine shop any day now....
Thanks for the supportive comments guys. :D

Surprisingly, I still had to roll the rear fenders even tho the wheels are nowhere near aggressive (19x9.5 +38) and the tires are 275/35/19. My usual shop also told me that the camber is unadjustable in the back, even after lowering. Oh, well. I learn something new everyday....

19's huh....wow they really do look small. I wish that they would bring this van to the US....but then again it is pretty pricey and I don't think the US market would be willing to pay $$$ for a van.....especially with the trend here being SUVs. I would do it but wait.......I got no money....so I guess I wouldn't. LOL Nice ride.....
