Y50 in Los Angeles

Hello everyone,

My name is Adi and I'm from Sunny Southern California (LA). I'm 25 years old and my occupation can be best described as Corporate Slave... lol...

I've always been into cars and modifications but I believe that you need a good car to begin with before putting money into it, so I got a 2007 M35 in May last year. After educating myself on VIP style and the inspiration in the forum I have drawn up a plan to slowly build my M35 to the specs I desire.

Right now the only mod on the car is 22 inch wheels and tires, 255/30/22 all round. The next step is an air ride suspension which I'm saving up for.

These wheels are going to be on sale soon and I want the back wheels a lot wider because I've decided to go for a different look.... message me if youo are interested.

Welcome!
I hope that you'r going to get smaller wheels in the future... only the LS460/600 can respectably pull off 22's and still be low like a vip-styled car should be:shrug:

Thanks for the welcome guys....

I'm looking into 21's or 20's.... Front Wheels 9 inches wide and Rears at 10 or 10.5 can't decide....

I'm getting a quote on the Impul front and rear bumbers, I have a set of side skirts that will be added as well. I also plan on getting some fender work done and pull them out 1.5 to 2 inches...

Big Plans - Still getting quotes from shops and trying to find a reliable and affordable one here in the LA area... any recommendations ?

There's a tonn of z specialists out here but I'd feel more confident with someone who has experience with an M...

Put them on Craigslist if you haven't already. They should sell pretty quick at that price.
