Are you on stock shocks then? I keep hearing that shocks will blow on aftermarket springs only so be careful.

looks good i just got a set of Dfs from a local member for my G/Fs 400, you need to push that rear wheel out at least 30mm
Oh yeah If the springs are new its gonna settle some Defnanatly give it a week or so.

i think it depends, my SC has 215k miles and i put on my Espelirs at 181k with original struts its still fine and not blown, same goes for my G/Fs GS1, 207k installed a set of DFs and was fine untill 248k untill she got Tboned 2 months ago.

Apologise mate. I post a wrong pic I'll edit it

Yup, I am on my stock shocks. Thanks for that very useful info LexusK. I'll be more careful and I will change the shocks.

i've heard that the stock struts blow fairly quick after the installation of lowering springs
anyways, your gs looks real clean
where exactly is tutong?

i think its like anything, some people have had good luck with it and some people have had bad luck with it. Like i said 2 Lexs and a 03 saab 9-3 all running just springs with stock struts, just fine for 40k+ miles so far on each after teh spring install. Had a 92 camry that went through 2 sets of rear Kyb GR2 struts and 1 set of gabriels fronts never blew, go figure. I think if you have the time and youre doing it yourself go for it, if you paying somone to do it for you def get new struts.

Yeah, the rear wheels need spacers to make em sit flush with the body

That's a respectable drop. Looks Good! I put on Bilstien shocks with my Eibach's, makes car handle really nice.
