Exclamation Slammed LS600hl

I finally figured out how to lower my LS600hl. Yes, it is as low as it can go...haha. I had at Bobby Rahal Lexus to turn some codes off from upgrading the brakes on her. Perfect now.

car looks clean, can't say i like the theme and the wheel colors, but the kits look good

that's as low as it gets? doesn't look that low and slammed. i guess the system for 2010 doesn't allow as much drop maybe, my ls460l could get lower

^^^I agree on the lowered part. doesn't look "slammed"
slammed is if you can't get your foot under the car

at first I thought it was black-it's a dark green color right?

kit looks good

I likes. The wheel centers not my pick in colors but I like that mesh style here. The ride height is good to me...without being too much a driveway, speed bump scraper. If I do get around to a LS 460, that is about the ride height I would have it at.

hehe, that's why you get the air controller to adjust the ride height

Really..."As low as it can go"? Mine is on stock wheels but it can go much lower than that.

Yes, this look WAY better than slammed though, but I don't like the color of the wheels ...

I like the ride height. Wheels remind me of some retro JDM wheel.

Grill is so much better painted.

Weird color mix but nice work!

LOL, yeah...

What has me curious about the air systems on these is the longevity at the lower ride heights. Of course a bridge to cross when it happens and I'm not even in a 460.

One of the other threads I was curious about ride quality on air and adjustable coil system. The realization the spring set-up will not be as smooth as air noted. I need to drive some as a base line and or get a ride demo at one of the meets. Mentally I have in mind what I'd do but I'm still a ways off.
