nice car man, but I'm not feeling the tucked look at all. Its very weird to me that so many guys on here like that look. On the evo, g35, g37, and bmw boards, most guys shoot for make the wheels flush with the fenders. I thought that whole tucked look went out like 7-8 years ago when guys were dumping accords and civics on air cylinders. I just never though so many IS guys would like the low rider look. I feel like lexus sedans are sporty and refined and deserve a flush wheel setup with a nice aggressive stance. To each their own though

That's how I see it. I want the look and drive of a high performance luxury sedan/Lexus.

anytime u want to sell those graphite stockies holla at me

and ur drop looks good... of course coils are beter then fsport springs/shocks lol

if i may a suggestion.. i think u should lower your front just about 1/4 inch or so to even it a bit right now ur rears are tucked and the front has a little to much gap looks uneven

great pics btw
