Guess I am old fashioned.....rims are nice but not what I'd choose....ride height looks great however.

I also like to see my classic chromed Mercedes star hood ornament while I'm driving my car....although from a sporty, clean perspective....it looks better without one.

All I can say is Florida must have much better streets and roads than here in the SF Bay Area....20"s wouldn't last long on these crappy roads I drive on daily!

Looking really good. I just finished the installation and I feel the same way, I wish the fronts dropped more, I am using the #2 pads upfront . How long ago have you done the work, and has the front settled any since then? Also, I just moved to Miami from NYC, who did you have do the work or did you do it yourself? Now I am seriously considering redoing the fronts with #1 pad !! Congrats on a great looking car, Cheers. Max

I've had them on for about a month now , and they havent settled much more. I did the work with my gf's brother actually whos a head mechanic for lexus , so we got to do it in the shop at night when everyone was gone. If you want ur front to really lower more I suggest either cutting a coil or getting the H&R springs off an e320.

Speedo should be off

MG, Peter had a good point, I am surprised that the tires dont rub with that tire size, you re in fact 1" over in diameter, but good fo you. You might want to watch though, your speedo should be off with this tire size, but can be recalibrated. Just a thought . Cheers, Max
