Default My thoughts on Megans LP series coilovers

i just bought a used set of megan LP's. Finished putting them on, and i must say after going for a ride and testing out the setting....i LOVE them! Now, my car is a daily and never tracked or raced sc400. on the softest setting it feels tighter and yet still rides like a lexus with stock suspension. I def recommend these for those who wanna lower there car, ride like stock, and you are NOT slamming your car to the ground. I went with these because i drive my lex long distances with my girl. and i'd still like to feel comfortable. Mind you... i am a baller on a budget. I don't make alot of money to drop into the car, BUT i still want it to look decently nice to ride in. i give megan LP's a THUMBS UP.
