let me know somethin all you VIP riderz out there how is the comfort on them aggressive drops can you feel every crack in the road? I just got out of the dropped thing but our year GS's look right tight with that VIP look. I got out of the dropped thing becuz I had a VW jetta dropped 4" on some 16x9.5" TH lines and I was tired of feelin the road if you know what I mean, I like ridin on at least 20's now tho a little older so I'm lookin for a nice ride at the same time, do you think a 2" inch drop will rattle my brain if I run up to a pothole to fast and can't swerve ( you know that happens too every once & a while) Holla at me post how you and a chick feel ridin in a dropped GS anything this VIP %$#* I'm gettin hooked to is all SEIZE fault!

To be perfectly honest, I don't like the ride. I bought the Lexus for luxury, but once i slammed it, it looked great.... felt like ****! I wouldn't complain it wasn't a daily driver. It looks great and I get complements all the time, however driving to the grocery store should be an obstical.

Pimp it out and get a daily driver

2" drop with 20's ur gonna feel the road, and when you hit a pothole. its gonna feel like your rims snapped. dependin on how fast your goin. i know from personal experience. i guess air suspension like 1bigjz said will soften the ride. but still with them 20's ur gonna feel it. i dont have enough for air ride or coils right now, so i went with the springs. maybe it will be softer with coils im not sure. all i know is my 20's with 2 inch drop on springs makes for a bad ride. im not sure, but i think most vip cars have mainly 19's so its much less of a rattle when they drivin.
