I have to agree with Ay-nako Teins do not go low enough as I experienced on my SC3. I would put drop before extra confort so ..... Megans winning so far I am wondering to tuck these HRE's (20x8.5 - 20x10.5 offset unknown so far, they were in a LS430 before) will I have to roll all fenders?

I notice the font fenders have a thin lip. Anyone with tucking 20's what are your rubing issues

This was not the case on my car. I dropped mine about .9" from stock and there were still 3" of threads showing on the shock body. I stayed away from the rubber band tires because I didn't want to sacrafice too much ride quality, so I wasn't looking for a crazy amount of drop.
