Default Finally posting

Bought an 07 GS350 last year.. Flint Mica Gray with 44k miles (I've already added another 20k miles). It had the chrome pillars which I removed immediately. Only added Weathertech mats. Came with DVD headrests which is good for kids. I've been looking for tires to maybe replace stock 18's. I may go 19's with aftermarket wheels. Staggered or not? This is a daily driver for me. Other than looks any benefits? With the 19's I would like a more aggressive stance with springs. I don't want to modify fenders or any rubbing issues. Any personal recommendations for springs? Many thanks.

Its not gonna look right if u put aggressive wheels on a high car. Your GS will look like a monster truck. You could lower it without doing anny fender. If u want a baller status coil go for KW, if you want a really good coil on a affordable price. Looks for BCR and Megan, so far those 3 are best coil for our car. Good for daily, not harsh or bumpy. If your looking for a spring check out swift spring's website. Or give them a call.

I would suggest Tein's for coilovers and if you don't want to lower it to much you can stick with the F-Sport lowering springs which aren't to low and come from Lexus. I do agree if you want an aggressive look you should lower it. Rims there are a couple of good rims, MRR, Vossen, TSW, Concavo, list goes on all depends on your budget. I think if you slam it that would require fender rolling you should be fine lowering it. If this is your daily driver I would stick with 19's and no higher and staggered, will look better.
