GS350 dropped on Tanabe DF210s (Pictures)
I've been meaning to take a few pictures for those who are curious how a stock GS350 would look on DF210s. Just finished cleaning the car and now its all shiny again. 
Yes, the car is on stocks, but that should change very soon... more pictures of that on another thread. I should have taken pictures when I lowered the car, but I was more into dropping it then taking pictures. Anyone with questions about lowering your GS PM me or post it here and I will answer to my best knowledge.
Thoughts:
Feels great being low... again. Had a civic prior to this car and it was lowww. Its a little more rough on the road, but nothing I can't deal with. Trade off is still great. I feel more comfortable cornering.
Pictures:
Before
After
Sorry, some of the pictures are not that great, but its hard to take pictures without flash in the night time with the exception of two pictures.

Looks great!
I have those same rims. What are you going to replace them with? 20s?
Im thinking about the NF210s only because I dont want too aggressive a drop and the possibility of tire rub when i do get rims.

looks solid man , but looks like you may have some rubbing problems if you install 20's. (you better stick to stock diameters 245/30 and 285/25). damn it takes ***** to slamm a 50K luxury car. I have the staggered asantis I had installed a week ago, but the springs will go on this week hopefully. I went with the other side of the spectrum in terms of springs and went with the tein h tech for the most conservative drop.

I'm getting 360 forged wheels, its a relatively new company compared to others like Asanti, iForged, HRE, etc. Its a 3 piece wheel. Cost a good penny, but I got a killer deal on it.
GatorWPB:
I am getting 20s for sure. Nothing less, if it rubs then I am prepared to cut or do whatever it takes in order to make them fit! I remember working on my civic... had to cut the quarter panels like crazy to be able to get the after market wheels on and alignment to factory specs.
The Godfather:
Waiting for them to settle ASAP. I wanted them to be lower then you see and from what I was told my friend with the same car and springs it gets lowww. I want it to tuck tires.
I8ABMR:
Can't be afraid of things in life. No fender gaps for me.
The tires are going to be 245/30-20 and 275/30-20. I love aggressive looking cars.
Thanks for looking guys. I am looking forward to putting the wheels on and do whatever needs to be done.

Sneak super peak at the wheels:
Looks like its going to rub after I do the alignment, but no one will know for sure until its put on. BTW this is before the drop. I hate you guys... make me spill the beans on my wheels like that. lol
