Default Just graduated from the LS400 forum - Lowest coilovers for LS430?
Hey everyone!

Just got rid of my UCF20 and picked up a 01 LS430. Loving every second of it!

I had a question, anyone have any idea what the lowest coilover for LS430 is? Not trying to go bags, and my EZ's do NOT go low enough at all.

Thank you!


Zach

Congrats on the new ride. I think BC Racing makes some coils that go pretty low. I had them on my GS and I could tuck tire pretty good.

BC's with the Extreme Drop kit would probably be the lowest you could go.

Powered by Max will lay frame. They can probably tuck 18's if you wanted them to. PM me if interested.

I didn't know they made PBM coilovers for the LS? I used to see people slam SC's with those.

... agree with VIHNsanity and Kira X . BC Coilovers will slam and rides nice...

here's my ride height with my old wheel setup and its not even at the lowest setting.

Big thank you guys! It's much appreciated, these chassis are uncharted waters for me, and I need some lows in my life

Jdbinspire - what spring rates were you running?

I need to sell my Megans and get BC's. My EZ's can go pretty low but the spring rates are too low for the rear.
