Just got some new wheels and car parts, pics posted

Just bought some wheels and tires used off of craigslist.org. The wheels are Work Wheels Crag IV's (japanese wheels) and look brand new but the tires are pretty worn down. I picked them up for $400!!! The wheels are 16x8 with zero offset and the tires are 285/75/16 Dunlop A/T. The price was a steal so i had to get them. I got before and after pics, before i put them on and after.
I also got some more car parts. I got a tailgate and tranny from a friend who stripped a 4runner for parts. I also got a polished, ported intake manifold, bored out throttle body and ported head with oversized valves and dual valve springs off a friend of a friend. The intake manifold was port matched to the head an also has holes tapped for nitrous. The only problem is that its all for an EFI engine. I might just keep the bored out throttle body and sell the rest of the stuff If i can't get it to work on my motor. By the way, does anyone know if a EFI throttle body will work on a turbo 22r? My mechanic friend said it might. Oh well, enjoy the pics.

It seems the trend right now is Deep dish rims for the rears. As the gunmetal style rims trend slowly comes to a halt.

Thanks. Here's a video I posted on the Lexus forum to show the benefits of the hi stall torque converter I put in it.
