Default My 04 LS430

Hey SoCal Members... here are a few pictures of my LS. I am debating on whether or not to drop it because I drive 100-150 miles a day and comfort is important to me. If I do, at most I will put the Tanabe NF210s. I put my old rims on that I had on my 02 Infiniti Q45. I would like to get some new rims but, I can't see spending 2-3 grand on rims when I travel some bad roads in LA. Anyway, this is my baby!

Definitely drop it, even just an inch. I doubt any difference in ride quality would be that noticeable. I'm running Eibachs and can feel a bit of a difference, but it's still comfortable (and I get comments as such from passengers on occasion).

Thanks Audax! I probably will eventually just wondering if I will have to roll the rear fenders. Afraid to get cracks in paint if I do.

Thanks lexusscturbo! Do you know of any trustworthy shops that are reasonable with respect to installing springs?

Thanks!

Where are you located?
There's Musicbox in Elmonte, Status Autoworks in Torrance, Exclusive in the 818/909...and also Autofashion in SD.

I am in Chino Hills? Where is Exlcusive? I am also in El Monte at least 1-2 days a week seeing customers.

Thanks!
