+BlackPanthaa all you need is a sturdy pipe (metal) to put on the end of the lug nut tool to give you extra leverage, then the nuts come off extremely easy
I was never really a fan of the lexus until it had those wheels on. Damn they look amazing in that colour!! Please just get rid of all the stickers it will look clean af
For fucks sake, I turned eighteen two weeks ago and have changed my tire by myself twice since then. First because of a puncture, then to put the repaired stuff back on. It was a breeze. You just have to know how to apply your force. If it feels like it's impossible, grab a pipe to extend the tool you are currently using. Come on man, car guys are supposed to know how to do mechanic stuff. This comment is not meant to insult you or bash you, just to show that you don't need fancy tools to fix stuff.
It's crazy how a set of the right rims can just transform the whole look of the car. Looking good man, even not lowered, but when you close that gap she's gonna look PROPER. 👌
if ever the bolts are on too tight just use a pvc pipe to add leverage or a wrench with a longer bar. Furthermore always push downwards (can be done very easily with your feet or pushing down with your hands using body weight) rather than the awkward pulling upward which can cause you to hurt your back. Never use additional leverage however to tighten your bolts otherwise you'll absolutely need a power tool.
you don't "need a tool" to take off wheels... unless your using air tools you'll probably still have to break them loose with a breaker bar. I'm assuming the wheels were torqued which means they were torqued with a torque wrench to approx 75 ft pounds, not that difficult for a person to break, just get a breaker bar that'll give proper leverage. If you wanna learn how to work on your cars stop giving up easily and letting a shop do it.
The lexus is200 Throttle body wont allow full throttle at all with a cold engine. even when it is warmed up to temperature you only get 80% throttle until about 4200-4300 rpm then it allows 100% this is why these cars have a rep for being a tad sluggish when driving normally
why are people freaking out about Theo not being able to change a wheel, he isn't a car person, he recently got his license, most of his life was spent around games not cars...stop acting like y'all the greatest ever
+Olli Jokinen fair enough that is a better reason than what I see people pandering to. But some people just can't.. They just need a car to get around.. But he did say he didn't have the tools
If I was you, I would sell the BMW, and use the money to buy even more upgrades for the Lexy, that car fits you incredibly well man, make it awesome! If you want to see my comment here are some tips: - Black piano roof wrap, it will give it a very sporty look and it looks awesome on the Lexus IS200 - Darker the headlights like you did for the BMW - A bigger lip spoiler, or a big wang lol - Dinner plate for the front - red brake callipers I'm sure most of these are cheaper to buy
Sorry if you said it and I just missed it, but what are the full wheel and tire specs? I've got 215/45R17s on my ESR SR05s, which are 17X8.5 5X114.3. I was just wondering because I went with a higher tire profile so I could stretch the 215s onto the 8.5" wheel (Had to use an air canon to actually mount it lol)
The width looks like 8.5j, 17in or 18in? And what's the tire width size? If 235 or above you are fine with 35 profil. I had 225/35/18 on my IS200 and you can feel everything on the road. A wider tire on low profil will give it more support. And if you are going to lower it, stick to eibach or apex. both are -35mm drop. I had the apex for two years and still going strong. Ride comfort is also not compromised. However I've now upgraded to coilovers, BCracing BR series, 32 way adjustable. Ride comfort is still good but it's stiffer than lowering springs. Haven't said that, handling is alot better as less body roll and coilovers are able to go lower than springs.
Them wheels look like rota grids or volk rays te37 and u should get a screamer pipe with an external wastegate from ur manifold if u turbo that is plus the wheels look sweet I'd go for same
Top tip for when the wheel nut are to tight Ether get a bigger beaker bar to crack the nut off or get a bigger steel tube to go over the smaller bar to give you more leverage
That makes no sense, u need wheels for looks, exhaust... what are u gonna keep a 2JZ quiet, stickers I get and bumpers, that’s for looks like wheels, ya crazy
From one is200 owner to another, love the wheels. Not the colour I would have chosen but they do suit the car. Cant wait to see what plans you have for her next :)
I mean fair play to you dude. You got a nice car and the best way to learn is to have a go. And if you get stuck TH-cam is at your disposal. Keep it up g
He's right, if you run mega low springs on standard struts you will end up with fucked struts in not very long and the car will handle like shit it will bounce and hop along the road
you legit can't change wheels.... I changed a flat for my mom when i was 7.. you take off the lug nuts, you take off the wheel, you put on the new wheel, you put on the lug nuts xD how bloody hard is that?!! I love your Lexus though, I have the same one sitting outside in my shed waiting to get wrapped
Easier to get it wrapped, 1.cheaper 2. Don't need to change log book details 3. Youd need the shuts and returns to be done ideally so wrapping would be a smarter idea
the wheel in total is a little smaller then stock (your tyre) it can set the speedo out a bit, in your case, it'll say its going faster then it is, not a problem though :D
When I was 12, once I helped my father changing the wheels of his car (few easy things), like tighten bolts a bit, and if i had more force i could have done myself, that with 12 years, it's not that difficult...
Bruh... I changed my tires and my dads tires with normal jack stands and tools + torque tool to torque the bolts. It's not hard to understand, but I have difficulties taking off the bolts and wheel, but I fixed it ;)
Hey Pants, nice upgrade, but I have a friendly recommendation: STAY THE HELL OUT OF LOWERING!!! I had lowered car myself (BMW E36) but the only thing I was experiencing was fear of loosing my front bumper on every fucking bump, retarder or parking on pavement. The height wasn't even so low - 12 cm = 4,7" from the ground to the bumper.. So, if you like your Lexxy and "her" ;) bumper, stay away from lower springs..
plans to buy an r34 gtr, but cant change the wheels... srsly?
I could, but I need the tools to do it. I wanted it done then and there
I can change wheels without power tool :DD
I FUCKIN KNEW IT! i had an idea when you were playing Pixle car racer!
+BlackPanthaa all you need is a sturdy pipe (metal) to put on the end of the lug nut tool to give you extra leverage, then the nuts come off extremely easy
You are not selling the Lexus
THATS THE CAR GUY SPIRIT ! :D
Looks SOOOO sick! I had the same problem getting my wheels off too! Can't wait to see it with springs.
Hello Nick! 👋
saw dude
looks danké
hi nick
HI NICK, WHEN YOU DOING MORE PIXEL CAR RACER
Basically all Forza TH-camrs in a nutshell, can't change a wheel...
yep
'car guys' 😂👎😂
Thats why PS4 is better ........ 0__0
+Jelly Bleach ok
Jelly Bleach Your pissed cuz I tell the truth ? I mean I like Forza but that aint gonna make me buy a Xb 1 for it.
I was never really a fan of the lexus until it had those wheels on. Damn they look amazing in that colour!! Please just get rid of all the stickers it will look clean af
rly? you can't change wheels? My grandma can do that xD
so true
It's so fucking easy mate
I am 14 and i've done it a bunch of times
he said he didn't have the right tools to put on the tires
wheels
Those wheels look amazing Theo!
Get Red Brembo brakes and then that wheel set will pop up
I know right! They are tooo good :D
+Caleb Louwskitter but it's (depending on what type of brakes you get) expensive
ye is about time but... THEO DONT LOWER IT, DONT DO IT!!!!!!! MATTY PLZZZ
For fucks sake, I turned eighteen two weeks ago and have changed my tire by myself twice since then. First because of a puncture, then to put the repaired stuff back on. It was a breeze.

I only got a car in September, licence in December. I need a breaker bar, I wanted it done that day
dont judge people.
The fact you pop tyres a lot isn't much to brag about lol
+pirate Games why do it yourself while the garage can do it without mistakes
If you call yourself a car guy and say "nah, I'll let the garage do it" just stop driving tbqhwyf.
It's crazy how a set of the right rims can just transform the whole look of the car. Looking good man, even not lowered, but when you close that gap she's gonna look PROPER. 👌
Thanks dude! Can't wait :D
Screw R34 buy twin turbo RB26 engine and swap it into your lexus!
would rather put 2jzGTE
Hmm, W12 Swap it hehe
+Caleb Louwskitter the wolkswagwn w12?😂 or the Bentley?😂
+Karst ikr wtf I am fourteen and I can even do it
i could do it when i was 12 :/
Proper choice mate, can't get enough of bronze rims
calls himself a car guy, can't even change a wheel. *facepalm*
there are kinds of car guy
1. the ones who only knows the models
2. tuners
3. Rich people who buys expensive cars
4. ricers
5. the ones who play games
Lol, he has never called himself a car guy. Plus, just because you don't know much about cars doesn't mean you can't admire them.
+pierce yu Sadly I'm number 1, I gotta admit :(
Meh to homie

I knew when you pointed out the rims in Pixel Car Racer, Lexy was getting a bit of an upgrade ;)

wrap your car black so the bronze wheels will pop
he hates black and silver cars lol
Yeah, he should make it matte black.
+Isaac Haber why has he got a black BMW then?
+Joe Reynolds he contridicts himself
because he's a knob lol

u probably dont know how to even drive a car
+lolm8123 I actually do...on my second car ...and even if I cudnt, that wud have changed nothing
Well a grown up man should be able to do that. Hell I'm a 15 year old skinny mofo and even I can change tires. Lel.
+Olli Jokinen fair enough that is a better reason than what I see people pandering to. But some people just can't.. They just need a car to get around.. But he did say he didn't have the tools
lawless8723 If he didn't have proper tools then I understand. Kinda hard to change them with just your hands. Lol
If I was you, I would sell the BMW, and use the money to buy even more upgrades for the Lexy, that car fits you incredibly well man, make it awesome! If you want to see my comment here are some tips:
- Black piano roof wrap, it will give it a very sporty look and it looks awesome on the Lexus IS200

I'm sure most of these are cheaper to buy
Holy shit those look good!
Thanks man! :D
I agree completely :D
all you need to change a wheel is the jack and a wrench. It is the simplest thing and important to know how to do you do not need power tools
they look similar to te37 s
Those rims look sweet
They are te37 replicas
Rota wheels rip
TE37's are 5 spoke but they do look similar, Nismo LMGT4's are 6 spoke.
+Ruben van der Peet Sorry I forgot it's the other way around

cmon guys,with those noodle arms you guys really think he'd to be able to change a tire?
I could even though I'm skinny...

I HAVE BEEN CHANGING WHEELS SINCE I WAS 8 TIRES ASWELL!!!!!!!! I ACTUALLY THOUGHT YOU WERE A CAR GUY. NOT ANYMORE
Them wheels look like rota grids or volk rays te37 and u should get a screamer pipe with an external wastegate from ur manifold if u turbo that is plus the wheels look sweet I'd go for same
you need a breaker bar to undo the nuts!
Ordered one XD
+BlackPanthaa why didn't you buy a is300 with a 2jz
+RDNCKRAMNOSD1 insurance would be too expensive buddy
+Charlster 2000 Insurance companies wouldn't care, same model of car.
IPlayGameNow it's a bigger engine so yes they will 😂😂
looks solid m8. get wheel spacers now! i'd respray the car black as well
Are you sure that 120°C running temp of your bimma is water and not oil?
Aaaand I just saw its oil Temp
You Knob
+Grantelb4rt water can only reach 100 degrees celsius u flop
+lolm8123 rip
lolm8123 It can reach way more under pressure
Top tip for when the wheel nut are to tight
Ether get a bigger beaker bar to crack the nut off or get a bigger steel tube to go over the smaller bar to give you more leverage
The 5 spoke wheels look pretty damn fine, but the height.. monster truck status. Needs some coilovers for sure!
they're alright but, ain't no TE37'S.
Those tires are absolutely beautiful.
BLACKPANTHER IS A RICER 🍚
A ricer would have some big wings bro
imo, you should get black rims for the bimma and wrap it in a blue/red/white color and wrap lexy in black
Exhaust, Stickers, Bumpers, Rims... Yep you're definitely a ricer
That makes no sense, u need wheels for looks, exhaust... what are u gonna keep a 2JZ quiet, stickers I get and bumpers, that’s for looks like wheels, ya crazy
I've got one ... u need to do 1jz conversion from a jzx or soara and welded diff
Buy a Supercharger or a twin turbo :)
the latter could be installed more smoothly
He needs a wang=1000hp+
yea haha :)
And blow his engine :)
ha
From one is200 owner to another, love the wheels. Not the colour I would have chosen but they do suit the car. Cant wait to see what plans you have for her next :)
Kid says "the lifty thing"
yes
***** 😅😅
I mean fair play to you dude. You got a nice car and the best way to learn is to have a go. And if you get stuck TH-cam is at your disposal. Keep it up g
Chad Daddy Rims
Chav*
CHAAAA WARDEN HERE
Hahahaha someone who understands
+BlackPanthaa caca (reply by typing pee pee)
+Justin.R Gaming Play btw take your car to a mechanic to restore your hp
the key is to step on top of the thing to loosen the bolts, and to use a really long tool so the force is much stronger.
It's called a breaker bar
Looks sik m9
ty m80
Why have you stopped?! I need your videos too
+BlackPanthaa only needs a big wang and then its a RICE MOBILE BABAY
+BlackPanthaa looks like skylines wheels
Where you at mane?!
Invest in coilovers not springs! Can deck it then or lift it, if you spend more you can also get dampening adjustable!
I would say so myself, but he doesn't need a car for racing, he only wants it to look good.
Yeah exactly. Lower haha
+BlueBeOn yeah you can only go a bit lower on springs
+TDiBloor I agree because if you want your car lower/ higher you can always adjust it when you have lowered springs you can't.
He's right, if you run mega low springs on standard struts you will end up with fucked struts in not very long and the car will handle like shit it will bounce and hop along the road
The BMW is nice but I don't get the point of why he got it
To be his quiet, "business car" which makes sense cos you can't make noise all the time. Sometimes you need quiet.
ah okay
+Project Racer what kind of business does he do ?
+Pinhead larry no clue. Ask him yourself. When he got the car and made the video he mentioned this business idea.
To blend into the tedious sea of other BMW's and Kraut boxes.
You can't just put thinner tires on it that'll change the diameter of the wheel so your speed and distance meters will be wrong
How much for some VOLK TE37?
£1250 mine are 15" I have a civic eg hatch
+Jim'll Grope it thanks good to know
+Apeiron np if your gonna pay more than £600 for wheels get rpf1's
+Jim'll Grope it yeah some enkei would be sweet too
18" te37s direct from Japan are 600 a wheel
you legit can't change wheels.... I changed a flat for my mom when i was 7.. you take off the lug nuts, you take off the wheel, you put on the new wheel, you put on the lug nuts xD how bloody hard is that?!!
I love your Lexus though, I have the same one sitting outside in my shed waiting to get wrapped
rlly sick m8 its gr8 10/Harambe

+Kārlis Maculēvičs you are my idol lmao
Kārlis Maculēvičs K
Kārlis Maculēvičs u do dis m9...i cry evritim ;(
Caleb = Wisest man to live (now)
get a breaker bar which is essentially a long pipe that fits around wrenches etc so u can get more torque and easily remove hard bolts and nuts etc.
Paint the car black
Agree
+Racing_Beast It isnt as easy. It is expensive too, and he would have to remove the rust from his car
Easier to get it wrapped, 1.cheaper 2. Don't need to change log book details 3. Youd need the shuts and returns to be done ideally so wrapping would be a smarter idea
he hates black
Then it'd look like the bimmer
Lexy is just getting better and better
ELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
dicks
heloo Matty C how is your day going?
ELOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
the wheel in total is a little smaller then stock (your tyre) it can set the speedo out a bit, in your case, it'll say its going faster then it is, not a problem though :D
Wow you are not a car guy.. you cant even change wheels 😂
When I was 12, once I helped my father changing the wheels of his car (few easy things), like tighten bolts a bit, and if i had more force i could have done myself, that with 12 years, it's not that difficult...
TE37 reps :(
Damn, nice car Theo, looks sick. I rate the silver-bronze combo 👍 It sort of looks like a rally-cross car.
Fake wheels lol its not hard to get real ones
not hard, but very expensive
+BlaZe iT but you can also save up
+Robert Hernandez but is ok
+Robert Hernandez same kind of looking rims
other is under 1k
others are 2k
ok
Wow you have a lexus IS. its a beautiful car. does it have any rust
keep up the car vlogs theo!! these are my favorite videos on youtube i must say 🙌
Bruh... I changed my tires and my dads tires with normal jack stands and tools + torque tool to torque the bolts. It's not hard to understand, but I have difficulties taking off the bolts and wheel, but I fixed it ;)
congrats Theo, those rims look INSANE!
:D
I KNEW IT you were like "I LOVE THISE RIMS A LOT" in the picel car video
Hey Pants, nice upgrade, but I have a friendly recommendation: STAY THE HELL OUT OF LOWERING!!! I had lowered car myself (BMW E36) but the only thing I was experiencing was fear of loosing my front bumper on every fucking bump, retarder or parking on pavement. The height wasn't even so low - 12 cm = 4,7" from the ground to the bumper.. So, if you like your Lexxy and "her" ;) bumper, stay away from lower springs..
what site did he order the wheels from
All you need now are coilovers and a welded diff mate. Drift missile that shit!
Try NEO tinting the lights, they will look great
Oo and some different coloured wheel nuts bcus why not
Whats the website, and when you ordered it, was the rim and tire came with it from the website
I remember teaching my sister to change a wheel. She had to help her stranded boyfriend once which was hilarious.
lol I'm 15 and I've changed a whole set of wheels and tyres 😂😂😂😂 keep up the good vids bro
Are the "non-visual centered" things you're going to be adding for Lexy, for the Bimma or both?
which engine did the IS200 have in the UK? I'm from Canada where we only have the is300 with the 2J
What kind of rims are they & the size of them?
the rims look great on lexy
Lexy lookin better than ever!
if you lower the lexus use adjustable coilovers, not lowering springs, they are so much better
Those rim colour are only nice on silver cars in my personal opinion, so you sir. Did a really really great job.
Love it.
Those rims are like the TE37s, plus my bro has Work Emotions D9Rs on his Lexus GS300
makes the car look so much better, nice choice
what are the wheel and tire specs? those fit nicely.
looks clean keep up the amazing work m8
Since when do you need the engine idleling for the 12v socket to work??? Can you just turn the key to acc?
Bloody love these wheels, they look a little like rota grids which are my favourite. Where did you get them if you dont mind me asking?
suit the car really well. cut it on lowering springs and will look sweet!
the lexus looks good bro
this dude got some mad DSL
New wheels for the lexus!!!! .... and then he starts jacking up the bimmer xD well done man hahahhaa love your vids :D cheers
Those wheels look amazing with the silver!!
those rims look absolutely incredible!!!
Awesome wheels dude! It's a good idea to lower the car using springs as well. 👍🏿
Looks like the Sultan now XD Brilliant Love You Lexy
I got Brock B35 titan metallic on my black Golf 7 , I love this kind of Wheels !! They are a bit different to yours.
what is your insurance on the lexus like with the mods declared ?
I can't believe you took it to the shop to change the wheels 😂
are u getting a turbo for lexy and what would ur reaction be if lexy came as a dlc car in horizon 3
its mad cos all i see is bootcuts 😂😂 9:00
9.39 looks like a Honda Civic bruh....Nah jokes!
That lil bit of stretch on your tyres will do you a favor if you go low;)
