1996 lowering with my rims
i have a 1996 es300, and i just got installed some 18X8 chrome motegi dpk rims. Now i want to lower it,but ive got a couple concerns.
i know the eubach camry springs fit the lexus but what about the H&R ones? heres the link.

does anyone know if my car will rub? i have 3 inch gap with the fender up front and liek a 1.75 inch gap with the fender in the back.
but the gap between the front tire and that strut thingy is only 1 inch in the back. does that make a difference? does lowering the car make the thing come closer the the tires?
i think i want these and not the eubaachs b\c 1" doesnt sound liek enough and 1.6 is too much without definate rubbing. so these are 1.3 froint and 1.25 rear which evens the front and back A LITTLE and its sorta in the middle.
ALSO will i need to buy a camber kit, or will i have little camber?

I honestly dont know about the cost difference between the Eibach and the HR v/s a set of Coilovers. But the coilovers like the ksports you would have complete adjustability. Anyways thats my 2 cents worth.

Yes, lowering the car makes the fender closer to the tires. Its what MUSt be done when u add rims.
