I lowered the car 4 inches and want to go one more inch. I am going to go with a stiffer spring rate and clearance the front strut towers. I drive over 80 miles a day at this height and love it.
Thanks for the compliments! I ordered LED tails from Jin at Kyoei USA. I am addicted to LED's and have converted almost every bulb.

Intermediate
New Shoes!!!
A couple changes since my post back at post #453.
Picked me up some mint 18's from a 2008 RX330. They are 18x7.5 with a +35 offset so they give a bit more of an aggressive stance. Best part is that I got them for only $600ca with the tires. Guy got himself a new set from an '09 RX so wanted to ditch these.
Car still isn't lowered though it looks like it a little right now. Gap is small because the tires I have on are from the RX so there are 235/55R18 99V!
Obviously too big to keep on for long; being about an inch too big in diameter. They rub the plastic inner wheel well when at full lock, not to mention my speedo being off by about 7%.
I'll pick up some proper tires as soon as I can decide what to get (Potenza G019 Grid was a little loud for me).
Big improvement from the old rims though.
