Default For those that were once lowered on OEM 18's

2012 on 12kg/10kg

Plan on going no gap or just below that mark on BC's. Already planning on having my brother rolling the fenders and tucking up the liner for a later wheel set up.

-Even though I do plan on getting an alignment, How bad was the alignment off at this height?

-Any suggestions on what dampening settings so I can use it as a base?

Any other advice would be welcomed as well

Though I cannot find my alignment sheet from Lexus, if I remember right I'm at 2.3 up front and 2.8 in the rear and lowered MORE than no gap on BCRs on stock wheels on 225/35 and 245 40s.

With that said, I didn't have Lexus mess with the camber...only the TOE. I enjoy my corners too much and love the amount of natural camber the drop allows. You WILL scape that front fender liner though; I just removed mine altogether.
