Thanks everyone for the compliments. I'm lucky to have found such a low mileage clean machine. No longer a low mileage GS, just turned 90k and so I decided to renew the fun a bit w/ new stance, shocks, and wheels and tires for a fresh factory look. The ride is great, very happy with it. Here's how it turned on Eibach's and the OE chrome GS430 wheels.

Settling? not that I can see, I wish i would have put a tape measure to it! The springs were in about 10 days before I got the alignment at Davenport Motors. The last few pics were about a week of driving. Hopefully all the settling is done so my alignment remains accurate.

Yes I do. Thanks for the reminder. Need to clean out the attic, they have been up there for years.
The set I have w/ tires are OE Chrome 17x8 GS400 five spokes, from my '99 GS - overall good shape. What's a set like that sell for? I will post em up in the classified after I take a few pics. Or PM me if you want them. Where are you located? DFW area here.

I too drove around a little bit to let my springs settle before I got an alignment done. The Tanable NF210's arent too crazy of a drop, but it was still enough to throw off my camber and TOE. I couldnt imagine those who SLAM their rides, without an alignment. TOE OUT tends to occur to most cars when they are dropped, which wears the crap out of the insides of the tires. The money they spent burning through tires and gasoline ( because the car has increased rolling resistance due to poor alignment ) could have been used for an alignment....lol
I have EIBACH Pro-Kits with Tokico shocks on my Prelude and it rides a bit stiffer than the Tanabes in my GS. Then again, it could be the difference in the nature of the cars too. People who have rode in my Lex who arent into cars and lowering dont even know I lowered it due to the great ride that the NF210's offer.
