That looks awesome. I love those wheels. I've been in like with TSW for a long time. What kind of weight are those? I can never find weight for their rims anywhere.

I set the coilovers at 20/20 front and rear dampening and lowered the overall height by 1.5 inch...when the 5Axis kit gets put on I will decide whether to lower it the other half inch or not....this car is my wife's daily driver so im worried about curbs and dips...you know women...they don't seem to know how to take low riding cars at an angle over bumps....I might go ahead and tighten the front by 5 or 10(I can afford to because the ride is pretty smooth as is)....this car is so dialed in that you know every limit when you drive it.

The red brakes look awesome, did you have it professionally painted or DIY? I was considering this or caliper covers.

A custom shop painted the emblems to match the rims as well as the coilovers; the springs and the calipers were painted TRD red

If you don't mind, how much did it cost to paint the brake calipers?
