Will be getting a 2006 or 2007 RX400h for my wife in the next couple of weeks.
I'm also considering lowering it - using the H&R spring set sold on TireRack. Anyone here done this mod? What has been your experience so far?
Any issues with alignment after that?
Got pics to share of your RX lowered?

I have Eibach springs and have no problems whatsoever. After installing them, there was no cabin roll, better ride (IMO), and of course, it looked a whole lot better.
The downside was that I lost about 2mpg, from averaging 29mpg to 27mpg.
Post Before & After pics if you can!

Do you have any pics of your RX lowered? I'd love to see how it looks.
I am also assuming you have had no issues with premature wearing of the tires? Meaning you were able to align the wheels without any issues?

Just did a thread on my RX and a few minor mods I've done.

I didn't have any problems with tire wear or alignment. I had 18s before the 19s and didn't have any problems with wear either.

I called Tire Rack last week about the H & R Springs. They told me that they have never actually received any of these springs. I ordered the Eibach and received them today.

Hi, I lowered my RX with the H&R springs and KYB Struts. The ride is firm but handles very well. I will take some pics tomorrow and post it.

I recently sold my 06 RXh but I had installed a full Airrunner air suspension with Accuair eLevel, upgraded entire sound system, converted to all Toyota emblems, hood covers, and aftermarket 20" wheels.
Contact Shin at Airrunner 714-978-2446 and he can order the correct setup for you. 2wd and 4wd kits are different so find out which one you have before ordering.
