Cool L-Tuned Performance Road Springs PTR07-30992-01

I was browsing around and I came across these spings.

L-Tuned Performance Road Springs

TRD's L-Tuned Lowering Springs drop the GS Series center of gravity and provide an increase spring rate, reducing the GS's tendency to roll or sway during hard cornering. L-Tuned springs will increase the GS's cornering stability without sacrificing ride quality.

Approximately 20mm reduced height and is compatible with your factory original shock absorbers.

Does anyone own these springs. I would like to see a picture on how they would look.

As expected..the drop is very minimal. On OEM wheels, you'll go from about 5 finger gaps down to 2.5

Yea they do look a lot better than the hideous OEM height. The L-tuned height should have been the factory to be honest. Mercedes and BMWs have nicer factory ride height. Lexus thinks most owners want to off-road their cars

I was thinking the same thing. The L-tuned should have been the stock springs. As far as off-road they were probably thinking of NYC pot holes.

Check out the tanabe DF210's... never fails on the NY roads guys and the comfort is great as well... They go great with KYB GR2 combo... See my "2001 GS430 Progress pics" thread for an idea of how they look on stock wheels...
