06 GS300 AWD low speed vibration
Good day. I am not sure if there are any other posts on this, but I have to ask anyway. I have a 2006 LEXUS GS300 AWD. I loved how it looked stock but I wanted more. I replaced the stock shocks with Brian Crowler coilovers and got some 20" Niche Verona staggered wheels. I dropped it about 2 inches. The problem is that when I take off I have a vibration that comes from the car up until i reach about 20 miles per hour. However, when I put on the stock wheels there is no vibration. I got it put on the rack and all the arms are fine. I even checked the tires and the rims for any problems and they are fine. Has anyone else had this problem with theirs?

From the research I was doing, once you lower the car and or add offset wheels to gs awd they tend to vibrate at low speeds. I'm not an expert but that's what I've seen since I was looking into doing the same as you did.

Since your car is AWD and lowered, the vibration is due to the axles (i think) not being long enough to compensate for the drop which creates the vibration you feel. Some people here experience it and can live with it. Nice car btw, and I thought your wheels were Vossen's. Surprised you have AWD in Florida too, but beautiful ride nonetheless.
