Very nice. Looks nice.
If I had it to do all over again, I would have gone with another lowering set-up. The NF210's settle too much and ride too much like stock. The car looks good though.
I'm thinking of changing tire size, how does the car ride on 245-30? Probably not much different than my 245-35.

I wanted the plush stock ride. I noticed the difference w/ the Tanabe NF210. After driving 50 miles home from the shop.......I'm glad ....to have gotten the NF210. I can imagine the DF210....would be even harsher. This is exactly what I wanted......after seeing the difference in ride height.....and ride quality.....
I'm not going to spend the $$$$ for coil overs. For the price I paid......for the parts and labor......I'm very happy...w/ the end result

Yes, I've had the car height measured by professionals.
It's actually a little more than 2 inches in the front.
If I do springs again I'll try Tein H-Techs or S-Techs but coilover ar ethe best way to go. It's worth the extra cash. You firm but comfy and best of all, adjustability.

RC your ride looks sweet![EEK!](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/eek1.gif)
I'm installing my NF210 tomorrow morning also, will post pics.
That's the first time I have heard of the NF settling to 2" and I've researched this forum over and over before deciding on the NF. I agree Coilover are the way to go but my wallet won't let me do it (plus my wife won't either, lol).

thanks guys.....to all of you. I'm a slow learner. I'm not up to speed on all the "tuner" upgrades...etc...etc. I'm kind of cautious what I do to my car. Henry knows.....I ask him a million questions....on this and that that and this. Pretty redundant.
I told myself I was done fixing up ...cars...etc...etc. Don't have the time to ....fix this....or adjust that. I just wanted a luxury...car to cruise in. Not so much into performance. That was why I bought the GS. All the bells and whistles....without fixing up the car that much. I compared this car to Audi and BMW..... Hands down....Lexus packaged all the bells/whistles ......just right. Whereas.....Audi /BMW ..."nickel and dime" you for all the options...which is total b.s.
Yes...Henry...yes...you told me from day1..to lower my car after I got wheels.....You have to understand from where I'm coming from. I never thought I would buy wheels....nor...lower it...hehe.... What's next?? hahahahahh
I went from a 1992 Mustang 5.0 Eibach prokit, Hotchkis camberkit, re-gear rearend to 3.55, headers, exhaust, alpine system to
2003 Acura CL
2005 Acura TL
2007 Lexus GS Mark Levinson
next car...hahaa......I'll save my $$$$$ when they come out w/ the GS-F.
Stuck w/ this car for a while......
Going to wait a couple of months......I am interested in the F-sport sway bars......F-sport intake.......... I"m in no hurry.... I want to see more reviews.....I don't want to "rice-out" my Lexus.......
VIP- guys do a nice job.....of tinting the rear-lenses.......... I'm debating....on that one....just pondering the thought. Nice job....looks like the factory...dark lenses that Mercedes...has an option...

My rims....have a Silver face that matches closely to the car....and the lip is polished....not sure if u can tell the contrast in the pictures......
