If you are rolling "Static" on your 460, what is your daily ride height? Pics would be awesome

Check out this thread by Minnyminh. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls4...le-update.html He's on megan coils. He has other threads with more pics if you search his user name.
Im on megan coils too, but have Platinum VIP air cups up front so technically not static.

Minnyminh is my nephew and his ride height is pretty low. We work at the same place and talk to one another about the next step we should or want to take on our cars. He is currently on airforce air suspension and his ride height is a bit lower than before. This past weekend we swap out my oem air suspension and install jic coilovers on mine, my rear fender well almost sitting right on top of my wheel, maybe 1/2 inch more. Right now I have 295/25/22 for my rears and 245/30 for the fronts. Planning to get smaller size front and back so I can tuck my wheels.

Pics? Do you have the SWB or LWB LS460? How easy was the switch from air to coils? any sensor or dash lights come on?
You on instagram?

I agree with you there. That baby was pretty low and still makes u-turns with no problem.

I will post some pics up when I get smaller size tires and lower it a bit more. Right now the rear quarter fender is about half inch above the lip of my wheel. I want to tuck it like Minnyminh.
