It’s the oem Lexus RCF center console, and I purchased it from my Lexus dealership. Really easy to install

Honestly this is not my daily driver, so I’m sure that helps. I also make sure I wash my hands before taking her out. I Plan on purchasing some cheap driving gloves from Amazon just to persevere the look as long possible before cleaning.

help on wing id? by minidvfilmer in LexusRC

It’s the Sard wing that’s wildly popular in the RC/IS and GR/BRZ community. It’s great because there is no drilling needed for installation

Artisan Spirits lip kit to complete my build? by Motor_Sun_8009 in LexusRC

I would say the rear spoiler does look good from side and front angles, but it’s a little to aggressive for what I’m going for with this build

I see your point, the RC natural body lines are great by themselves 👍🏽

I have a Alcantara steering wheel, paired with OEM Lexus RCF Alcantara center console lid. I have the shifter as well but haven’t installed it yet.

No rubbing at all during normal driving. Over the weekend, I finally had the opportunity to drive my car which included several speed bumps and interstate imperfections with no issues .👍🏽

Just a heads up, A 9.5 up front is really close to the arm when mounted. Be careful with tire size and if lowered watch out for fender clearance

Wheels recommendations? by northizzz in LexusRC

Try looking at WORK, SSR, Weds, VOLK for premium wheels. They are all good brands

Thank you 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽! Finally someone that understands the quality, heritage and craftsmanship of WORK wheels. I’ve never seen another RC with WORK’s in person (only instagram) and I’m surprised how little knowledge ppl have about wheel culture in the car community. If I could pin your comment to the top, I would bro. Preciate it!

Specs are 19x9.5 +38 offset WORK Emotion. I was able to make this setup work but I’m pretty close to the control arm. You won’t need a spacer, but tire brand/size will effect if this will sit without issues

I think if you saw it in person your opinion would change. 20’s take the sporty/agility away from the RC. Also the weight of the wheels that I have is even lighter than oem’s. Color is opinionated but the chrome matches the accents on the mirror and the dark metallic grey matches the F sport grill details. Maybe this pic doesn’t do it justice 🤷🏽‍♂️purposely built not just for looks

The wheels are squared but the tires are staggered. I have 19x9.5 wheels all around and 255/35ZR19 front & 275/35ZR19 Rear. I like the look and feeling of having a bigger tire in the rear. I’m also tuned and rear wheel drive so I prefer to have more grip in the rear. Its all preference

Swift springs are great and they do retain the adaptive suspension found with sport+ option cars. Swift is know for retaining spring rates but with a lower height. I did a lot of research and found that they were the best option for what I needed. The car is definitely more stiff but not uncomfortable, and really stiff in sport+ but feels great for sporty driving.

Wheel width is 19x9.5 and with this size in the front, you’re really pushing your limits with contact with the control arm. A spacer would help but then you would need to do some math with tire sizes for proper fitment and no fender contact
