Nice ride/pics...did you drop your tein’s all the way in the front? Any rubbing? I went all the way in the back but left some in the front. I'm thinking of going all the way down in the front too. Nobody else notices the difference between front and back until I tell them, but I notice. Let me know.

The old plate was off of my G35. My GS just didnt seem like a BMW eater. I used to get compliments on it all of the time at stop lights. I am thinking that the GS is " lexual " rather than a bimmer eater

I have the car set to the max drop. I have had the car loaded with myself and 3 other 300 lb passengers and no issue at all.

3 other 300 pounders~ OMG
Sorry but that is a lot of fat..... I hope you are not one of the three hundred pounders. Sweet ride non-the-less, those would be the wheels I would do as well.

I am 6'5" bro and I was the shortest in the group. Tallest was 6'8". We watch the superbowl and laugh at the size of the line men. They act like its that special. I was offered a football scholarship to USC in 1993 but refused the offer to go to UCLA on a full scholastic scholarship. Brains and built like a brick **** house. Rare combination. My brother is 6'5" as well and went to Harvard and Harvard Law. I have a cousin who is a US national water polo player and went to Harvard medical school. Good genes

In the future you shouldn't assume all members are small like yourself. Some us lexus drivers are freakishly tall. lol

I love my GS but I cant usually put my hand between my head and the head liner. It has a lot more leg room than my G35. I am a big guy but I have never ever been into trucks or SUV's. I have had many people tell me that they would have never thought I would be driving a sedan as big as I am .

Being tall is a real pain in the *** much of the time. Buying a car, clothes, flying, etc ....its a pain in the ***. Still better than being really short I guess.
