Default Daizen Sways

I have a 2001 GS430. I want better handling, my car lowered slightly (1" to 1.5"), and I have 20" rims.

I understand that the Daizen Sways give you a better ride than others (which is what I want), but I am not sure what else I need to buy to compliment the Daizen Sways. Do I get the Bilstein shocks/Eibach spring setup, or the Tein CS setup, or the Bilstein PSS Coilover setup?

Thanks in advance.

Thumbs up

I have the Tein CS and Daizen sways (as well as a bunch of other stuff ) and am very happy with the ride/handling compromise.
Yes, you can lower the car less than 2.5 inches; mine is about 1.5 inches lower and it is just right for me and the driving that I do. I tend to be quite practical and if my car mods interfere with daily driving duties in any way, then it doesn't work for me. That is the same reason that I went with 18s for my wheels. Not ruling out something different, but I'm happy with my set up for now.
By doing lots of searches and taking your time with the mods (and asking lots of questions) you will do well and end up with an awesome car! We're glad to be of help as you can see...

Do you want you're car to ride realy nice or do you want all out handling?

I had Tein Flex and found them too harsh... I then rode in Tein CS and its perfect for me. Handles better and the ride is amazing (close to stock).
