All was good in the world until last week when I discovered these. Safe to say they needed sorting and the roads in Sheffield are curse word! Got them done but had fallen out with the idea of these wheels on the car (it doesn’t take much to trigger me haha). So off to devizes I went one evening from Sheffield and subsequently got home at 2am. But It resulted in these going on the car… They’re rays Victrix kreutzers 19x8.5 and 19x9.5, safe to say they suit the car more than the other wheels which have already gone to a good home to get rebarreled and put on something else. Cleaning the car up tonight and I’m off to the drivers collection show tomorrow and then fitted on Sunday 🤙🏻 Cheers! Looks awesome on those wheels!! I've got a wooden centre console from my old 98 ls400 if it's any use to you? Yours for the cost of postage Thank you mate! I’ve got two spare UCF10 Centre consoles I’m thinking of routering out on the front and making a coin holder for the back of so they match exactly 🤙🏻 Thanks for the offer though!

Wanted to catch up on this thread so just re-read it from the start, Brilliant, the car looks fantastic and the work you've done on it is first class, (though you get through some wheels lol,) It does, without doubt, look excellent, Looking forward to seeing future updates, Nigel

As much as the sale of the Yakuza yacht upsets me greatly... I know you need to be a grown up one day... Now please start a thread on its replacement that "I'm not messing with it's meant to be a cheap run about" 🤣

Hey, I just picked up a super clean 1 owner 1990 LS400 in silver. I love the look of these wheels and tires! Can you tell me wheel size, diameter, and offset? And what tires you used?? Thanks!

Hi mate, the last se my of wheels on it were rays vitrix kreutzers, 19x8.5 and 19x9.5. I can’t remember the offset but I think they were around 30/35. I’m sure from memory the tyres were 225/35/19 front and 235/35/19 rear but don’t quote me on that. Good luck with the car they are great! Cheers!

Hey mate, did you ever sort out the speedo issue before you sold it? I’ve manual swapped mine with an r151 out of a newer model Hilux and having no luck getting the speedo work with the speedo drive in it, same three wire plug as the j160. Awesome write up btw helped me hugely along the way.

Awesome write up btw helped me hugely along the way. Hi mate, I re pinned the plug and got it to work it just read 5x under. I was going to buy a signal multiplier from Russia next and give that a go. That was my next port of call anyway. Wiring the speedo up to actually register solved some strange problem where the car had to read drive to stop stalling and run a little more nicely too for some reason.

Absolutely stunning cars. I miss mine a lot having had it written off financially by some idiot.
