Nice MERKEDLS thats the drop I am going for the problem I still don't know the offset on my HRE's, I ll have to play by ear and see what I can do. Were are you in FL? Maybe one of these days we can meet up... any Lexus meets you go to down here?

 

maybe you can use an ss kit to get it lower.

 

yeah i could,but that means more money.but we'll see when i get them installed.maybe i'll like them.anytime now.

 

not sure of the offsets but i think they are 8.5 in the front w/ a 2inch lip and 10 in the rear w/ a 3inch lip.....with 245s in the rear its about 1/8 inch from the rolled fender.....NO RUBBING AT ALL ....the front is a different story!

miami, kendall specific....im down to see another ls ive been the only one every lexus meet ive been to.

 

hey merkedls, any chance you'd be willing to disclose the mods to the coilovers you made? please pm me if you don't wish to post it up

 

Sounds good MERKEDLS, I work by Homestead and live in the Doral area ... Shoot me a e-mail if you know of any meets

I am installing my Megans this weekend and my wheels should be painted by then as well.

 

For those of you who have Tein CS coilovers, how is the ride? I am debating if I should go with Tein CS Coilovers, or OEM Struts. I want to maintain the OEM ride quality, but from the posts of many it seems like Tein CS rides very much like OEM struts & springs.

Please give me your input. I don't plan on dropping the car with coilovers, but it might change. So OEM Struts? or Tein CS?

Thanks fellas

 

Nice stance! Anybody know what kit is on this LS?

 

I was wondering the same- How is the ride quality on the Tein CS? I'm looking to get the teins with some 20's and I don't want any wheel gap. I drive my car everyday so comfort is key!

any input would be great! thanks

 

Tein CS rides comfortable, only down side is it doesn't go as low as the other coils. You'll need an ss kit to get it lower.
If you want to go a lot lower and get a different brand, you have to trade it for comfort. You'll have to decide if you want low or comfort.

 

I like I like

 

Here is another random pic....

 

WOW!!! The LS looks bad *** dropped. Drop it like its hot because that **** is hot

 

I'm curious...how can he drive it like that? As far as I know, coils aren't electronically adjustable yet. There are the electronic adjustable bilsteins coils, but those aren't availble for Lexus. So, did he have to adjust the coils when he got to the parking lot? I can't imagine he can turn with the wheels tucked like that.

 

im also going megans also. just wondering what tire sizes you guys are running. i just picked up some l-sportlines m2's with 245/35/20s in the front and 275/30/20 in the rears. kinda old wheels but got them for a real good price. waiting to get some megans before i put them on. Both rear tires have bubbles on the side wall so im wondering should i stay with the same rear tire sizing or go smaller? what do you guys think?
