Lexusboy I maybe boring but I am looking for around 1.5 to 1.75 inch drop

I would go for 2-3" with the wheels you have fitted. But anything more would be a bit extreme - IMHO.

Andy I am only after them fitting the arches, As i hate the real slammed look.

I really want the car to sit right and perform well and still give me a great ride as I am too old to feel every bump in the road...

This is the look I am after..

That is a good look... same as what I am after.
But considering how high the SC430 sit as standard, that is probably a good 50mm drop. lol

No worry, it will still ride well and be comfortable even at the slammed ride height, you won't be disappointed.

That is why the Lexus have a different range (Europa) because like other European cars, refinement is just as important as performance. Wink

Best Regards,

Easy, think I run a bit higher than that... and that is because I have to raise the car up something like 2 inches.

So getting to that ride height should be pretty easy.

Especially if you are on 20 inch alloys... Smile

that would be easy, I was tucking on 18" and had to raise it.

Will be awesome once you fit them on I think. Smile
When are you fitting them?
