Does the LS460 have camber adjustment on the wheel alignment? I finally upgraded from my GS to an LS and wanted to also drop my LS and put some 21's on it. I remember with my GS430 that when I dropped it the tires had considerably more wear on the inside as the GS did not have camber adjustments.

nope, from what i know, none of the current generation lexus' have camber adjustment. it's just toe for us (unless you're a baller and can afford all the t-demand stuff)

Thanks. That's what I thought. Anyone drop there LS and Notice bad wear on the inside of there tires?

toe, toe setting is the important one you adjust to compensate the inside wear.

there is no way to get adjustment to the camber settings unless you get modified camber arms that are adjustable. ive heard that there is not a lot of wear when doing a mild drop for the LS but if you are going to be slammed or go lower than whats ideal to drive around in then you might have some abnormal wear. like stated above TOE is the most important thing. how much are you planning to drop?

just out of curiosity, have you gotten an actual quote on this t-demand stuff? I know people are saying they're more than nagisa arms, but how much are these arms exactly?

i've been meaning to ask my source for a quote -- i'll try to get something by the end of the week.

btw, i found rca's for 16 aristo in a quick google search. i don't know how good the pricing is on these ( 24,500 yen):

Im not gonna drop it more than 1". I just want it to sit right with 21's on it.

Any recommendations on what springs to by? Last time I bought Tanabe's. They were alright...

oof. that's a big can of worms haha. i think the wheels are going to look on the small side unless you're willing to lower it a lot, but i have a different method of tuning than the rest of the owners in the 460/600h forum. at the very least, be aware that your tire selection is going to be limited

also, if you're only lowering it an inch, you'll be fine with regards to camber -- my car's lowered maybe 3"? 4"? and the camber was only -1.6* and -2*. be absolutely sure your toe is spot on, though

adamls2

you should be fine with around 1 in. doesn't affect the camber that much to do any damage at 1 in. you should look at tanabe springs...they seem to be really popular
