New Guy- 2008 GS460
#17
Hey guys, I'm a new to the Lexus game and I have a few questions. I bought my car 2 years ago and I finally bought new wheels and I have a set of Megan Springs (2" drop). I was looking at the in the box and they're not labeled front of rear. I guess whenever I install these things I can differentiate the front from the rear? Thanks for any info on this. Here is a pic of the car with the wheels.

I'm fairly pleased with the springs. I have had some rubbing issues but they weren't terrible to deal with. I tried rolling the fender in the rear (it'd only a 1" section thats a problem) but I did't like the way the fender well trim looked when it was finished. So I rolled it back and I ended up trimming the problem area away with a body saw (A small air saw). It seems to have solved the problem. Keep in mind I'm running a 20" wheel that's 10" wide in the rear so if you're running a smaller wheel you'll probably be ok. As far as the ride goes I'm pretty pleased, plus it's got a good look to it.

Thanks! I am running 20x10 in the rear also. Even with stock springs I get little rub when there is extra weight in the backseats or trunk. I plan on rolling the fenders and lowering. I was considering Tanabe NF210 with a 1.3 front/.9 rear drop but the Megan drop looks great and about a $100 cheaper.
