1. To set the mirrors so they DON'T tilt down: leave the mirror button in the MIDDLE and they won't tilt in reverse
2. To make the RIGHT mirror tilt only: leave the mirror adjustment button pressed down on the LEFT mirror adjustment setting
3. To make BOTH mirros tilt down: leave the mirror adjustment button on the RIGHT mirror adjustment setting

oh, and for me, the left mirror seems to tilt down more than the right. which makes the right side tilting down pretty much useless because it doesn't show me the ground. is it something i need to bring in to lexus service to look at?

After my first experience with rim rash backing up, I realized the value of tilt down mirrors when you have low-profile tires. It bugs me that this is an option bundled with luxury or sport package. It could probablly be enabled with a software update.
Lexus, if you read this forum, please make this change. Enabling tilt down mirrors should be no different than modifying a personalized setting.
