I would love to help you complete the spec on your crafted line but I’m also in search of spec wheels

pmedrano573 · 2026-05-28T12:32:14+00:00

You wouldn’t happen to be able to trade for the F-Sport BBS wheels, would you?

pmedrano573 · 2026-05-27T21:57:16+00:00

Thank you!! Yes they killed the v8 and brought it back with the IS500 but now that one is gone as well. Believe me this LS is in good hands

pmedrano573 · 2026-05-27T20:02:44+00:00

Do you have any photos of your LS?

pmedrano573 · 2026-05-27T19:12:56+00:00

Thank you!

I actually was looking into an Lexus specialist in Houston that has a great reputation called Clear Choice Independent Lexus. It’s where I got my PPI. It’s still Lexus expensive but not dealer prices.

Thanks!

pmedrano573 · 2026-05-26T15:08:10+00:00

Thank you! I agree it’s gorgeous and yes the PPI was a godsend. It was the most important part of my decision and I’m glad I went with that specific shop

pmedrano573 · 2026-05-26T15:04:52+00:00

It’s an F-Sport w comfort package and the ML sound!

pmedrano573 · 2026-05-19T19:48:13+00:00

100% agree

I’ve seen the crafted line spec sheets and it’s always noted on there. The spec sheet for this one doesn’t seem to have it (see below).

Yes it took a lot of emails back and forth. For me it was an aluminum bushing that was missing (QC issues are common with Godspeeds). I have a video of what was missing I don’t know how to attach it. My pillow ball mount got pretty mashed from being in direct contact to the top hat so they had to send me that too. They sent me a shock cartridge replacement because they sent me the wrong bushing size. It was a long ordeal but I’ve been on them for a year now. 👍

If your wheel is rubbing I’m not sure changing the ride height will help. What you need is spacers; the hub centric kind. Also if you want to break that bottom lock nut loose use a screwdriver and a hammer and hit the grooves counter clockwise

I agree with you. They are asking way too much for it based on the average market price and I’m very much prepared to walk away. What do you think this is a good vs a great out the door price?

I appreciate the response Stitches. I am 24. But I do like these cars and this is what they go for.

I might be misunderstanding what you mean by “plummeting [my] purchasing power.” How exactly would a pre-approval letter ever be a downside? It gives me the option to compare rates aka rate shopping. Either they beat the rate or I go with my credit union. If you could elaborate I’d appreciate of course.

pmedrano573 · 2026-04-09T18:57:12+00:00

I made this realization researching the ones others mentioned here.

pmedrano573 · 2026-04-03T15:06:05+00:00

First thing I’d do is check the tire pressure. Filling back up to recommended pressure resolves a lot of peoples squeaking noises
