Nice drop! I'm green with envy.
...you have an ES250, and I've never been able to locate one. Now you not only have one, but you have a lowered one. And now it's on its way to looking niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!
Can you tell us what struts and springs you went with and how it rides now? After she settles a bit more, get us some whole-car pics so we can get an idea of the stance, etc.
Congrats...I hate you

Thanks...kyb gr2 shocks and struts,intrax springs [1.75] front [1.75] rear. but the front is too heavy because of the v6 engine on it sooo i'm guessing it went down to 2 inches.With a lot of research coz the springs are for camry and nobody try it yet on a lexus, I took a chance..lol(no return policy on the springs).
It rides good and not that bumpy, I like it a lot, not like my other car too bouncy....pics will be posted soon, need to wash it..
I'm thinking of putting a sportmax 504 wheels on it, what you guys think?

Interesting. SportMax is now XXR Wheels... Perhaps a name change with all the SportMax haters out there (who seem to think, unless you've spent $2k+, you're buying garbage ). I put their 962s on my SC and they rarely fail to get compliments at the car meets and on the street. They're advertising the 504s as a VIP look, so if that's the look you're going for, you're right on track. I'm curious to see how such a wheel would look on that older style body. You might post a side view of your ES and a side view of the wheel in the Photoshop forum; someone will certainly Photochop it for you.

Thanks..
the intrax springs are for 4 cylinder...i hope the gr2s could handle it,but if not i might go with agx. But for now I'll stick with the gr2s and hope it could handle all the weight.Right now i dont have any issues with it, I just change the axles,and strut mount yesterday and as for the rubbing, no problem at all. I could still make u turns without hitting the fenders or rubbing.

Very good looking ES 250 you got there. Don't see to many of them which makes them rare. Take real good care of her and happy driving...
