I know, you know, we know the rims gotta go, which is why you're selling them. Other than that, the car looks clean

looks good bro.. I am actually loving the rims on your car, sit quite well and flow nicely with your body kit.

car looks super clean. love the kit. for your future mods though, with respect to suspension...save a little more money and go coilovers. it will give you the ability to fine tune your stance (fender gaps) as well as fine tuning your firmness. you will like the tuning options that coilovers give you, especially since you are running with the 20s. stance is oh so important!

have fun

We should definitely setup a 2nd Gen GS meet, would definitely like to meet some of you guys and see what future mods you guys are planning.

That's a great idea...it seems like there a a lot of GS owners in Toronto. I would love to see all the other Club Lexus GS drivers in Toronto get together. I am curious to see what other GS owners in T.O. have done to modify their rides.

Thanks for the advice! I was actually looking into a coilover setup (HKS Hipermax LS) but this setup was more expensive than just springs and struts (Tannabe NF210 springs and KYB struts) I thought coilover setups were generally always more expensive that just a new spring and strut setup...unless you know any current coilover deals

Anyone have any advice on whether I should run a coilover setup or just new springs and struts?
