I need pictures of those with either Tanabe or Cali Custom springs that are running 18s and/or 19s. I want to know what it will look like before I decide of a setup to go with. Side views would be perfect but anything at this point will work.

Hey guys. I am new to this forum and a new Lexus owner. I am getting ready to purchase new springs and wheels and tires (18's) for my LS400. I am curious about the Tanabe springs. They claim a 1.5" drop in the front and a 1" in the rear. I am curious if this causes a slight rake to the way the car sits and how it looks compared to say the Eibach springs that do 1" front and rear. I am looking for the car to sit level.
I have also read a lot about the best ride. Unfortunately I have not come to a clear winner as far as best ride goes. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. I am kind of leaning toward the Eibach from what I have read so far.
Thanks

imho i dont think that 1inch would look like much, i actually wanted something around 3inches.
but with the tanabe, i am very satisfied with the drop.
as for the ride quality, it is still very smooth, too smooth for me tho. lol
i used to own an AE86 with full suspension, and i got used to the rough ride.
but i wish the LS was more "solid". in the long run, ill prolly get some coilovers.
