wow... so the diameter of ur rear wheel is about 1" taller than that of ur front wheel.
the diameter of 275/35/19 is pretty much that same as that of 275/30/20....
Why not use 245/40/19 on the front to make them even since ur rear wheel setup is already out of stock specs anyway?
I have 275/30/19 on the rear wheels.

For real? man... I have to see it.

The offsets you have are INSANE for this car.
I bet it was a lot of work to have those rims fit on this car.
Unlike GS and LS, fender modification is more difficult on sc430.
I also have a GS, so I know what I am talking about.

I tested fit a set of F: 19x8.5" +15* R: 19x9.5" +15* wheels before, but I couldn't do a full turn without both front tires rubbing the inner wheel well plus both rear wheels were at the edge of rubbing,too.

With the right drop, I am positive that your red sc will look meaner than this one easily.
Maya RTS...good taste, man.

man.. I love the insane setup you have on the rear wheel. It is amazing.

Any fender mods on ur sc?
What suspension are you running?

I know Tein CST won't get ur car low enough.

-1.77"/f and -1.38"/r for Tein CST.

-2.2"/f and -2.24"/r for Tein CS.

i'm rocking auto coutour lip kit and auto courtour suspension.
no fender mods was done to the car!

I never heard of auto courtour suspension before.
Is it a coilover or air suspension? It must cost an arm and a leg.* ;D

Since you don't have any fender mods, I wonder if you have any rubbing issue on both front and rear wheels.
Also, are you still using the same size of tires?

auto courtour coilover kit it was about $2400.00 in japan. and i hand carried from japan. no rubbing at all. it's cause of the auto courtour suspension. and the tires i'm running F:225/35/19 R:235/35/19.

I see I see.

$2400 is not too bad. Do you have a link for more info?
I alway do a lot of homework when it comes to modify my car, but I guess I don't do well enough. hahaha

So it is the smaller tire size that eliminates the rubbing issue.
If you are running F:245/35/19 R:275/35/19, then these wheels will rub big time.

I have read from other forum that you have connection to get JDM stuff from Japan.
I might need your help in the near future. ;)

Your sc will be a legend, man.
I have seen some seller on Yahoo Japan claims that you can convert pre-05 uzz40 to 06+ sc430. That includes headlight and HID foglight... etc.
Glad that you can share all the info with us.
I know someone on CL wants to convert his foglight to HID, but he doesn't seem to have too much luck on it.
If you succeed in converting all that headlight and hid foglight and are kind enough to share your experience, you bet some ppl will follow. That includes me. hehehe

As for the AC suspension, I've seen it before, but never paid any attention to it.

sorry that I have missed that suspension part.
you hand-carried it from Japan. As far as I know, you are the only one who has the ac coilovers here in US.

also,you were saying you have no rubbing issue because of the AutoCouture suspension?
how low can it go? how many damping force setting does it have? ride quality?

The G-Answer coilovers you saw above can slam our sc pretty crazy, but it costs like 2k ,I think.
And another coilovers is made by Phoenix 's power and cost about 5K.

yes i think i'm the only one in the us with the ac coilovers on a sc. i know that i can take front all the way to the ground! but not the rear. the ride feel just like stock and there is no setting for the damping force. and yes i hand carried from japan. that is what i do everytime i go there. just hand carrie everything.
